Converting a Linear Playlist to a Cut
You may store a Playlist as a cut. This can be useful to allow a Playlist to be consolidated onto a
memory card for transfer to another system.
There are limits to the kind of Playlist that may become a cut:
• The Playlist must not include other playlists (Compound Playlists).
• All cuts in a Playlist to be copied must be of the same Sample Rate and Format.
The new cut will occupy disk space equal to the run time of the Playlist.
When converting a Playlist to a cut, an unoccupied index location must be used.
This operation uses only audio between the HEAD and TAIL points from each cut in the Playlist,
resulting in a single cut made up of the concatenated audio that would have played in the original
Playlist. Fade In, Fade Out and Gain settings are not applied between cuts from the Playlist. The
Fade-in and Gain setting of the first cut of the Playlist is applied to the new conglomerate cut and the
Fade-out of the last cut in the Playlist is applied to the end of the resulting single cut.
If WAV and DC2 files have the same sample size and sample rate, they may be mixed in a Playlist
that is to be converted into a cut.

Playlist.
When copying is completed, DigiCart/EX returns you to the cut level.
The new cut is automatically given the same name as the source Playlist. The source Playlist is not
deleted.
* Copy Original will also perform a Playlist-to-cut conversion. It will copy the cuts in their entirety, ignoring
Head and Tail trim edits.
