Volume mod Can of Worms

[Einzeln]

This pcb (Can of worms) is a new release, so I googled it. Found a review of the original pedal that claims the pedal lacks output volume.

Is it as simple as lowering R15 to increase the output volume?

Yes, that resistor is dropping a considerable amount of volume.

Any reason R15 would need to be higher than 1k?

Did anyone find a more workable value for R15? After seeing the YouTube demo for the original, I had to order one of these boards. Hoping to get some serious AIC tone out of it.

I went with 10k cuz it's what I grabbed first. Worked for me.
The op amp needs a bit of resistance on the output to guard from oscillation from a capacitive load, but 180k seems OVERkill..
