Ha! I had to do that the other day - although not to DVC pro. Downloaded the latest (old) keyspan driver, whacked the show out to tape through the limiter (which I probably didn't need) then dropped the freshly labeled tape in the FedEx. Totally inside the comfort zone!
Two days later the network said, 'Oh, yeah, we haven't updated the delivery requirements in the 2019 producer's guide. We don't accept tape anymore.'

After a couple of OS updates I found that I no longer could see the Keyspan USA-28GX. I tried an old driver installer but it told me the startup drive had a newer version. I went to Tripp Lite after a google and found they have a beta driver for Mac OS 10.12-10.13. I installed it and it works now. I didn't uninstall the old driver but things are working. Some things like the videodesktop installer from BM and or Avid's branded videodesktop have an uninstall choice on the disk image. I guess keyspan drivers are different.

Anyway it is working and after scratching my head in front of the Panny 1400 I was able to get the monitor composite output up on an old CRT so I could get into the menus and see them in understandable english and not just the front panel hieroglyphics. I always get screwed on Pannys when the menu has been set not to display the characters out on the various outputs. I forget the number combo but will look it up on the Panny 1400 that is displaying the characters.
