Introduction

DigiCart/II Plus Owner's Manual

Total running time

Sampling rate

Recording format

Editing information for head and tail times, fade in, fade out, gain and secondary

cue timing.

Much of this information is displayed on the front panel of your DigiCart/II Plus to assist you in
managing a large audio library.

A significant advantage of DigiCart/II Plus is random access to any cut. Multiple drives, directories
and cuts are quickly accessed. Once the ID of a cut appears in DigiCart/II Plus's display, that cut is
pre-loaded and available for instant playback. This way, multiple sequential cuts can be rapidly
accessed from a single DigiCart/II Plus machine. Unlimited cuts may be stacked in easily edited
pre-built lists. The Quickstack

™ feature lets you create a sequence "on the fly" for one-time-only

use, or it may be saved and named for repeated use.

DigiCart/II Plus also expands the traditional role of the cart machine by including non-destructive
editing capabilities. You edit and prepare cuts on the same medium used for playback. Start and
end points are easily adjusted. Up to 40 seconds of fade-in and fade-out can be applied. Playback
gain can be set for each individual recording and sounds may be seamlessly looped for continuous
play.

Maintenance issues have been addressed with modular construction, making repairs an easy matter
for the electronics professional. Durable construction keeps wear and tear to a minimum, even in
high-usage environments. The design of DigiCart/II Plus incorporates built-in upgrade paths and
the capability to accept larger disk drives as storage technology advances.

DigiCart/II Plus has been significantly enhanced by the inclusion of D-Net file transfer software as
standard. D-Net enables the digital audio interfaces of your DigiCart/II Plus to be used for faster
than real time transfers of individual cuts, entire drives and their associated file information.

Before you begin using your DigiCart/II Plus, please take the time to read this manual. You'll find
information regarding startup and a condensed operating guide with concise step-by-step
instructions in Chapter 1. Chapter 2 covers setup. Detailed operating instructions are in Chapter 3.
stacks (playlists) are explained in Chapter 4. Maintenance information is contained in Chapter 5.
Operation of D-Net is detailed in Chapter 6.
