And I wouldn't be surprised if the system requirement increases with MC32, e.g. minimum becoming 10.12 or 10.13 or anything newer.

The real “rub” is no internet connection.

I can move the iMac to an internet connection for the installs.

Will the OS need an Apple account? Does it need to see the internet daily?

MC31 runs on 10.11, but keep in mind MC needs an internet connection when adding your license, then it should work without a internet connection. If it somehow loses the license (e.g. changing hostname, using MAC address randomization, wrong time used, etc.) then it'd need to be reconnected to re-add the license. If system requirements increase for MC32 you likely can't use it without updating your OS too. Depending on the make and model of the Mac, it may be possible to force upgrade to a newer macOS version like Sierra, High Sierra, Mojave or Catalina, depending, it has a little bit of risk though. More info on that here (I'd highly recommend reading all of them and looking at known issues and whatnot if thinking about going this route): https://dosdude1.com/software.html

I've already sent those jerks a nastygram for refusing to work with Tascam to upgrade the driver for my UH-7000 interface, in addition to the bloat of their OS updates I'm forced to use to access later versions of my tax software. My 2014 Mac Mini won't fall off a log now if you kick it. I've got MC32 on it and am waiting until next year to purchase the baddest MacPro laptop I can afford in hopes it won't bog down after another 10 years of their crappy OS updates. At that point, I'll move MC32 or newer over to the laptop and run everything through a new DAC, but I'd really like to use MC22 on an old Macbook that actually works quickly - and on my Tascam interface.
