The cap values are properly called out on the schematic. Pins 4 & 11 are the supply connections for the op amp. Pin 4 is +12V & pin 11 is ground. BTW, although the TL084 should work fine, there are better op amp choices available these days. I personally like the TLV2374 for its rail-to-rail in/out capability, low crossover distortion & low cost. Then again if all you have in your parts bin is an LM324 it should work fine for testing purposes. Bob NO6B
