[sdiy] Paia MIDI2CV power supply

[Peter Swarbrick]

I have very successfully run three different examples of the M2CV8 board
from +/- 15V over the years. Apart from increased dissipation in the +5 reg
(use bigger heatsink) or series dropper R (use bigger R!) the board works
fine.

That said, Paul Perry's advice is extremely sound, it's just that the PAIA
psu arrangements on this board are pretty simple and forgiving.
Best
Pete
