I know multiple people still clinging on to their old 2012 MacPros running FCP7 as HD tape capture systems running OS X 10.6. And ONLY for that purpose. If it ain't broke, don't fix it, especially if it requires ripping out all of your existing capture devices, switching to USBC/TB4 type connectivity.
Yah I made a mental note when I saw that setup being used in the Tiger King Netflix show (where they show quite a bit of behind the scenes of making it). I think it stuck in my head just because it was FCP7 but it’s like a high quality power tool - it doesn’t just stop working (unless you break it hehe)
