New Cave Dweller Build Help: What Cap Type for C10??

[fuzzymuff]

Well, I was going smoothly populating and soldering the cave dweller PCB until I got to "C10".  C10 calls for 1uf which is 1000nf from what I understand.  I've always assumed as a general guide to distinguish film caps from electrolytic, nf will refer to film caps and uf would refer to electrolytic caps.  Looking at the cave dweller layout, "C10" calls for 1uf, but in a film cap form!!!  I just ordered all the parts and yes ordered ONE 1uf electrolytic cap instead of a 1uf film, which should have been noted as 1000nf to make it less confusing.  Could I use a 1uf electrolytic cap?  Does the polarity matter?

Thanks!  So will not effect the tone or delay effect if using an electrolytic cap instead of film?

I've not built one myself, but I don't see why it would... but I'm pretty much of the "caps r caps" school.
