Hi, 

I've been thinking of starting a synth project. I thought it might be convenient
to start from the power supply and surfed for them on the net. But one thing was
almost never answered, what kind of transformers do people use in these?

I've been thinking of something like this:
http://www.ori.org/~aaronc/synth/PowerSupply_V1.pdf
but with the 120V -> 2x24V transformer changed to a one with the european 230V
-> 2x24V, but with 13VA, 22VA or more or even less than 13VA? Farnell.com has a
lot of these to choose from. :P

Or maybe a better power supply schematics are lying on the net, but I just
haven't runned into them. Might even buy a commercial one if I find a good one
inside the europe and could move to the nice part of project like VCO. :)
