Circulator R4 print error

Nah man those 1u film caps are massive, impossible to solder and even think about having space for the pots, etc.

This feels like an absolute scam from Musikding's side. I have already emailed them. Some sort of refund or compensation should be in place. And please, find someone else in Europe to deal with your kits. Your designs seem amazing, but Musikding is just an absolute disgrace.

The pots go on the opposite side of the board, so the caps won't be a problem. Those 1uF film caps really should have been MLCC, but that isn't specifically spelled out in the build docs so it's not entirely on Musikding.

They're usually good about correcting any issues, and I'll shoot them an email to see about getting those outdated boards replaced.

Sorry to bump and old thread. Also, I'm new here. I just started my build last night and ran into this. Thinking the tall 1uF film caps I used would be okay as long as they're no taller than the electrolytic caps. Is that correct? And is there something special about how the MLCC caps affect the circuit or is it just a matter of fitting on the board? Can I just keep the film caps provided there's enough clearance in the enclosure? Thanks in advance!! 20220225_124241.jpg

You are fine as long as everything fits the enclosure. It's all a matter of size and form. You won't notice any audio difference between the caps.
