ENTER

to exit with no change.
NOTE: Because DigiCart/II Plus must pre-load audio for the new HEAD point, there may be a
short delay the first time you press
PLAY
to audition a new HEAD pointer. Pressing
PLAY
a
second time will start the cut immediately from the selected HEAD point.
Tail
TAIL determines the point in the selected cut where play ends. DigiCart/II Plus limits selection to
a minimum length of about two seconds. Therefore, the TAIL point cannot be set earlier than about
2 seconds after the HEAD point.
When setting a new TAIL point in a cut that contains FADE IN and/or FADE OUT information,
DigiCart/II Plus will not allow you to set the TAIL pointer to less than the combined total of FADE
IN and FADE OUT times. (For more information, refer to FADE IN and FADE OUT later in this
section.)
Press EDIT MENU and rotate the SELECT control to TAIL. The display will show the current
TAIL point of the cut:
