Hello.  I'm building a Tonepad DOD 280 compressor clone.

http://www.tonepad.com/getFile.asp?id=40

Tonepad calls for (4) .05uF caps.  I have (4) .047uF box caps.  Will the .047uF caps work?  Will they change the performance of the pedal?

Thanks in advance.

Yep!

Nope!

+/- 10% is all good  ;)

I just did that very thing and it came out great.

I also recommend trying different opamps. TLE2072 and op275 really make it sing.
