Tantal or Silver Mika

[littlestevie]

Hi all


I'm in a the Tonepad TS  project, and there is two 0.22µF tantal cap in the schem.
Can I replace them with Silver Mika without changing the general sound of the TS :oops:  .

Thanks

When I built mine I was missing one of the tants and I used an 0.22 electro instead(yes,you  can find them in 0.22uF).I used it in place of the one going to ground not the tone control(for that one I would use the mica),don't ask me why,but my TS sounds awesome so I don't think it affects the tone in any negative way AFAIK.

Don't forget to warm them up  before using

Are you sure you have .22uf Silver Mica caps? 2200pf or .0022uf is the highest value I usually see available.
