Hi. I need a dual polarity -9 - 0 -+9 type power supply. I don't trust myself to build my own, so I would like to derive it from a plug in unit. The output is very low current, it is intended to be powering op-amps and 7555 cmos chips, aswell as some discrete transistors (tis97 mostly) in a synthesiser. I have found a switch mode power supply which is rated at 24v:

And I thought of the below circuit to derive the twin 9v. I am worried about noise though, with the SMP which apparently can be noisy, and the zener diode. Any thoughts? Can anyone find a "normal" type dc supply of either 18 or 24v?
