Configuration
• You should be prompted to enter a user name and password. The user name is
"
administrator " and the password is " admin ".
• The Finder will ask you which drive you want to mount. There is only one choice,
"X48 Data Drive". Click OK.
• Double-click on "X48 Data Drive" to see its contents.
• Look in the "XProjects" directory for projects.
If you're having trouble getting things to work, you should be able to "ping" the X-48 from
the PC. Open an MS-DOS window (Windows) or the Terminal in Applications/Utilities
(Mac OS X) and type “ping 192.168.1.1”. Note that this example uses the IP address
specified in the above steps. If the X-48 does not respond then you something is not
connected or configured correctly.

drive space:

Free Space

Drive Benchmarking Utility
The X-48 includes a utility that you can use to test any connected drive before using it. The
recorder runs a series of write/read tests and then reports how many tracks it can record to
that drive at 48kHz and at 96kHz. You should run this when you attach a new hard drive to
the system, especially an external FireWire hard drive with an unknown drive inside it. To
run the Drive Benchmarking Tool:
Mouse/Keyboard Operation (only)
•
Click the File menu and choose Drive Benchmarking...
• Choose your hard drive from the pull-down menu.
• Click OK to start the test. In about a minute, the X-48 will report how many tracks
you can record to this drive at 48kHz and at 96kHz.

A new hard drive needs to be formatted before recording on the X-48. To do this:
