[sdiy] +/- 15Vdc Power Switch

Hi,

I'm building a synth that uses a +/- 15V DC regulated power supply.  I
would like to use a switch to turn the synth on and off (switching
mains AC on/off is not an option).

I have a Double-Pole, Double-Throw switch (a pair of inputs routed to
two possible output pairs, depending on switch position).

My plan is to simply connect the +15 and -15 Vdc (to circuit) if "on"
and disconnect (float) if "off".  I will leave all grounds connected.
Is this OK?

Thanks,
Chris
