Tascam MX-2424 ans MXView

[thedoogmeister]

I just purchased an MX-2424 for my work in community theatre theatrical sound. I am currently designing the theatre space to be used on 10/31/2024 for a re-enactment performance of Orson Welles 1938 Radio Play Dracula. This is our third time in four years for this performance. I am working on some simple surround sound designs using the 2424 as playback for the surround portion. I did not purchase the RC-2424 which will come sometime after October. But what I could use is a copy of MXView. Very elusive to find. Any help? If it's available for Mac is preferred... but Windows 10 would be okay.

I think there are still downloads of the MXView software available on the Tascam legacy product page. You should be aware, though, that MXView is a very old application and only runs on OS 9 on the Mac, it won't run under Mac OS X or beyond at all. The PC version can run on Windows XP, but I haven't tried anything newer than that. I keep a Power Mac G4 around for MXView and for backing up SCSI drives. Got any vintage computers sitting around that you can bring back into service?

Hope this helps,
David
