I'm putting together everything in my cart on Tayda Electronics to build an Informant Overdrive once the PCB is back in stock. I've got plenty of soldering experience and have rehoused several pedals, and now I want to try my hand at putting a full pedal together.
**The red lines through the resistors were done by me just to keep track of them as I added them to my cart**
I have all of my resistors added - all are 1/4W as per Parts List. I read to go with 1% Metal for all resistors instead of Carbon Film, can anyone confirm this?
Now for the capacitors, when I search for 100nF capacitors on Tayda, there are several types to choose from, the same goes for a few of the other caps. Is there a general rule for the type I should be getting as a beginner? Fine tuning and tweaking is beyond me at the moment and I'm just looking to try the basic build.
I have the same question about specifics regarding the IC's, Diodes, and Pot choices.
Also any other tips or insight for this build would be great.
Thanks!
