Declaration of Conformity

13.13. SHIFT + Time Div encoder

Also known as Skip Time Divisions [p.84]. Instructs the Sequencer and the Arpeggiator not to

change the Time Division until the Shift button is released. This makes it possible to select

non-adjacent Time Division settings without having to pass through the settings between

them.
