The Shift Function trades the values for the Variable Clock Outputs and is accessed from the Program Edit page (Double Press
PGM_B).
For example, if Channels 2, 3, and 5 are set to be Shifted, the Variable Clock value at Channel 2 is swapped with the Variable Clock
value at Channel 5 at the Rising Edge of the Gate patched to the Mod Input, simultaneously replacing the value of Variable Clock 3
with that of the previous Variable Clock 2, allowing Channel 5 to take on the original value of Channel 3…. In other words, it
behaves as a Shift Register for the Variable Clock parameter values, where at each Shift command received, the values are passed
to the next active Mod Enabled Channel. These changes always occur at the Rising Edge of the signal patched to the Mod Input so
that when a Gate High is read, the Mod LED ashes Magenta and the Shift occurs immediately, allowing for an TEMPI Channel
patched to the Mod Input to control the Variable Clocks Shifts.
Program Edit: Shift
Using Button-4 on the Program Edit Page, Shift may be Programmed to operate in the following directions:
Clockwise, CW
Button-4 = Red
Counterclockwise, CCW
Button-4 = Blue
Random (aka RODENT Mode)
Button-4 = Purple
Types of Shift and Reset:
There are (2) Types of Shift behaviors, Programmed using Button-6 on the Program Edit Page:
• Not-Jumbled Shift is the Default and recalls the last stored settings when navigating away and back to State; Button-6 = OFF
• Jumbled Shift recalls to the values last utilized at that State when navigating away and back to a State; Button-6 = Red
Disengage Jumbled Shift when you want to easily return to a State’s Programmed Variable Clocks after Shifting Channels.
Note: Muted Channels are not Shifted. One could emulate a Shifted Mute by Programming a large Division and Shifting.
If both Shift and Run/Stop are both enabled (See Page 21), all State selection must be done using the State Select CV and
Combo Pot.
Tip: Shift is also useful for Programming variations of States where you want use the same Channels:
1. Create your initial State.
2. Copy and then Paste to another State.
3. Press PGM_B to enter the Mod Programming Page and set two Channels to be Shift Enabled, Purple.
4. Send a Gate signal to the Mod Input to swap their Variable Clock values.
5. Set these two Channels back to being Mod disabled.
Use this technique to trade Variable Clock values and create new States.
