>How crucial is it that they are 1% metal film? This is what have most of

the resistors as so far.

The primary issue is noise. Carbon resistors are noiser than metal film.
Also the higher the resistance, the greater the noise generated. That said,
with a value like 22M, you usally don't get a lot of choice. I'm using
carbon I think.

For values less than 1k, I don't go out of my way to find metal film.
Another thing to remember - vintage synths are usually full of carbon resistors!
