VirtualBox Success!!!
Dark Side?
I have been trying for some time now to run my Mixman DM2 controller & software in a virtual PC environment since there is nor will ever be any driver support for it on Windows 7 (let alone the 64bit version I run). I’ve not had any success in Virtual PC, Virtual Box, or VMware Server. I finally decide to try it on the Mac, starting with VirtualBox. I had no luck until on a lark I decided to plug the DM2 into a port on the Mac instead of a USB hub. Happy Happy Joy Joy!!! It worked without a hitch! I can now get rid of my sole remaining dedicated Windows XP machine (or at least re-purpose it for a better cause!). This, in addition to the work I did on a Mac Pro assembling a Pro Tools HD rig, has seriously caused me to think about making a desktop platform switch. The only problem is I don’t make enough money to buy all that Mac gear!
