DigiCart/II Plus Owner's Manual Operating Instructions • 45
If a cut of the same name already exists in the destination Directory, and you have answered Yes to
the REPLACE DUPL NAME prompt, DigiCart/II Plus will copy over it.
The display will indicate:
REPLACING
SOURCE ID SOURCE NAME
You may elect to copy less than the entire directory.
8. When the name of the last cut you want to copy appears in the bottom line of the
display, press CANCEL.
DigiCart/II Plus will stop the Copy Directory procedure and return to directory
select mode.
Copy Edited
C OPYING A C UT
Copies the edited version of a cut from its original location to a new one. The copy will include
only the audio information between the HEAD and TAIL pointers; the trimmed HEAD and TAIL
sections will be deleted. (See EDIT MENU OPERATION later in this Chapter.) The procedures are
the same as for COPY ORIGINAL, however select COPY EDITED from the UTILITY MENU.
An edited cut may be copied to a different number in the same directory and the original cut
ERASED to save space. Once vacant, the edited cut may be copied back to the original number, if
desired. This avoids the need to update logs. When the original has been deleted, the edited copy
becomes a new original.
C OPYING A S TACK
DigiCart/II Plus handles stacks in the same manner as cuts. Use the same COPY EDITED
procedures as for cuts. Stacks may only be copied to other ID Numbers in the same Stack
Directory or to a Stack Directory on another drive.
NOTE: While stacks can be copied from one drive to another, they still reference the index
numbers of the cuts they contain. Therefore, if you copy a stack to a Zip cartridge, it will play
correctly only in the unit in which it was made or in another unit that contains the same material in
the same index locations. Converting the stack to a cut on the cartridge, as detailed below, avoids
this problem.
You may also convert a Linear Stack to a cut using COPY EDITED. The new cut will occupy disk
space. HEAD and TAIL trims will be copied, FADE IN and OUTPUT GAIN settings will be those
of the first cut. FADE OUT will be that of the last cut. (See CHAPTER FOUR).
NOTE: Though seldom used, this procedure can be performed using COPY ORIGINAL. However
the Head and Tail markers of the cuts in the stack will be ignored.
C OPYING A D IRECTORY
Copies the edited versions of all cuts from their original locations. Cuts that have not been edited
also will be copied. This helps to conserve disk space by copying only the essential portion of each
cut. The procedures are the same as for COPY ORIGINAL; however, select COPY EDITED from
the UTILITY MENU.
