Hi
Newbie here
I have a Daphon E20CH Chorus pedal which came to me in a broken state, though was an easy fix, and now I'm wondering if I can give it some improvements to make it as quiet as possible and maximise its performance.
It's using the MN3207/MN3102 BBD pair, plus there's a MC4558 and 022D JRC (an 8-pin amp chip). There's 8-10 X C1815 transistors. Most of the caps are green polys - plus several cheap-brand electrolytics. The resistors all appear to be carbon film, the PCB is one-sided, and most of the components are crookedly placed with long or lop-sided legs. There's two trimpots [excuse ignorance I don't know what they're for]. But - the pedal does work!
I understand that the 3207/3102 chips are commonly used in Chorus pedals. Are there any mods I could do which would enhance this pedal or bring it closer to well-known Chorus designs that use those chips?
Thanks
Jim

Pretty sure it's an Ibanez CS5 Soundtank under the hood. Maybe go digging for mods on that unit and verify if they can be applied. I found these links:

It was also sold in a plastic soundtank type shell as the E10CH and under a lot of other brand names:
