The easiest is to jumper R58.That will double the output level.

Good remark. There's 2 ways:
1) Open your pedal and find it. This helps when you have the pedal on hand like the topicstarter had.
2) Knowing the SML contains the same board as the MS10 and find the schematic for that one:

hope this helps
