Capacitors Pythagoras / Unison Double Tracker

Hey,
I’m building a Pythagoras / Unison Double tracker at the moment. I went with 1uf film caps instead of the 1uf mlcc on the parts list. I got a shipment in from Tayda and I forgot to check the width of the caps, they are 5mm, rather than thinner like 2.5mm.
So my question is, does anyone have experience alternating sides of the board for a row of caps so that they fit. Is there anything I should be aware of before I attempt that (other than clearance for the pots and switch)?
(c2, c3, c6, c8, and c10 are the 5mm ones in question.)
Appreciate you.

That's not an issue. Also, unless you're using it for bass, you could probably go lower without much or any audible difference.
The input cap is 100n...

I might use it for a synth, I’ll leave at 1uf. Appreciate you!

May want to increase C1 and C4
C4 is part of a 159Hz HPF but will only effect the wet, which may be of benefit, depending.
I would increase C1 for sure though. May have to pad the synth down or reamo to keep the FV1 happy/not clipping.

So if I was using a guitar in drop-C or C-standard (have a few songs with that tuning) that low C is ~65hz, what would you recommend changing C1 and C4 to? Would any other changes help?
