Conventionally it is not recommended to add capacitance for MC cartridges but use it to tune the hf resonance of MMs.
The tuning of MCs is more normally done by adjusting the load impedance, higher impedance doesn't damp the high end resonance much, lower damps it more. My normal preference is usually around 10x the generator impedance, though I prefer even more using a matched step-up transformer into the MM input
