Isolate the I/O with a small transformer?

Now this is working perfectly, until someone plugs in one of those transformers that feed several stomps. At that point my ground and the other circuits grounds are 4.5V apart, problematically enough it won't work for me to (just) use opamps that can run from non-polar voltages.
