Not to slam the fine idea of powering AC devices from a master power supply,
but I don't recommend it unless you want unbearable hum or broken Lexicons.

I actually tried this years ago and it didn't work at all. The AC's for these
devices have to be isolated from one another. Sourcing them from the same
supply caused me all sorts of problems.

If you have *separate* AC taps from a transformer, it might work though.
