to be on a piece of media that the X-48MKII has access to,

such as a CD or USB flash drive.

CAUTION

Only Version 1.50 or higher (Windows version) is designed

to operate on the X-48MKII. Earlier versions of TMC should

not be installed on the X-48MKII.

Using the X-48MKII System

Restore CD

In the event it becomes necessary to use the X-48MKII

System Restore CD to restore your X-48MKII to its original

factory configuration, following the steps below will

ensure a smooth restore process:
1 Back up all audio data. This should already be done

as part of a regular workflow.

2 Check the TASCAM website (http://tascam.com/)

for the latest firmware and patch updates. If any

are available, download them and use them to

update the unit after using the System Restore CD

to reinstall the system.

3 With the X-48MKII powered on, insert the System

Restore CD then restart the X-48MKII. The VGA UI

doesn’t have to be displayed, all that is required

is power to open the drive tray. If necessary, the

X-48MKII can be forced to shut down by holding

the front panel power button for a few seconds.

4 The X-48MKII will automatically boot from the

System Restore CD and run the X-48MKII Installer.

Please follow the steps in the X-48MKII Installer

screens.

CAUTION

When using the included System Restore CD to reinstall

the system, always disconnect all external hard disks

connected by eSATA or USB, including USB flash drives.

Failure to do so will result in the System Restore CD

erasing all data on these external hard disks.

NOTE

When formatting you can select whether to format only

the OS partition (Windows XP Embedded and the X-48

Application) and rewrite the software or to also format the

data partition at the same time.
