PAiA Fatman is supposed to run from 12VAC 500mA supply. (Scott - Are
you there - have you regulated supplies build to your Fatmen?).

I think I'm with Dave here (?!)..

What You "REALLY" want is AC/AC wallwart with halfwave regulation
inside the sequencer. From the memory, it's about 2 power diodes,
smoothing caps before and ofter 7*12 regulators. That should give You
smooth +/-12VDC power for a standalone sequencer.

It will be a small addon board to the sequencer, but should be easy to
build and looking at Jameco's offerings: http://tinyurl.com/29qfgd
won't really be that expensive even if you have to do the supply PCB
ect.
