This is Tech Supports reply:

We have not announced any plans for a 64-bit update for MX4, however several other customers have expressed interest. I will forward your request to the development team.

I use my MX4 all the time using Vienna Ensemble Pro 5. VEP5 allows you to run 32bit and 64bit instances at the same time...and DP8 recognizes the 32bit instance while running in 64bit. I have a couple of old 32bit VIs I run this way. LOVE VEP5.

That wouldn't be a very practical solution for me. MOTU should just update the VI.
