Title: Green Bean Cap Question
Post by: MADWAGNER on June 21, 2013, 09:14:51 PM
I'm finishing up a greenbean and I had purchased 1uf electrolytic caps instead of the film required for C2,C8 and C10
I was wondering if they could be substituted with my 1uf electrolytic?
I did managed to find 2 1uf film caps in another project, I can take if I have to.
But that leaves me one spot I need to sub for.

Any help would greatly appreciated.

thanks

They have to be oriented correctly, and it's my understanding that in the audio path, they may introduce noise, but yes you can use them.

Thanks for the reply!
I wonder if out of C2,8 and 10, which would effect the tone the most?

thanks again for your help!

hey thanks I fired it up today and sounds pretty good, except I get no diode clipping in the first postion of my on/0ff/on comp switch. I wondering what diodes postion 1 of the Comp switch is suppose to control, the asymmetrical or the symmetrical? Postion 3 of the comp switch sounds great.
thanks again for the help!
