I use a software version. But still, on a microscopic level, it&#8217;s probably using 2\/3 of a transistor, 4 times, on my CPU. A transistor is 2 diodes with 3 leads, so you can use 2\/3 of a transistor as a diode.<br \/>\n<\/span><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/biptunia.com\/?p=10316\">FULL FINAL ALBUM HERE. <\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/michaelwdean.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/Frk1_yqakAEjpmA-1.png\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-2026\" src=\"https:\/\/michaelwdean.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/Frk1_yqakAEjpmA-1.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"458\" height=\"262\" srcset=\"https:\/\/michaelwdean.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/Frk1_yqakAEjpmA-1.png 458w, https:\/\/michaelwdean.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/Frk1_yqakAEjpmA-1-300x172.png 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 458px) 85vw, 458px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Below is audio of a piece I&#8217;m working on, called &#8220;Slow Blink.&#8221; The ring modulator on a synth comes in at 13 seconds.
