Unable to remove Voxal audio input device from Mac (Big Sur) after deleting Voxal from Applications folder

[Darrek]

Hi. I tried the Voxal trial version on my Mac, decided it wasn't for me. 16" MacBook Pro, 2019 model, running Big Sur 11.1.

NCH's instructions for deleting software from a Mac just say to delete the app from the Applications folder (move it to Trash). I did that.

Voxal Virtual Device still shows up as an audio input device in my Sound Preferences, and I can't find a way to get rid of it.

Any suggestions? Thanks in advance.

I'm having the same problem and now there seems to be interference with my Apollo....I can no longer get my vocals to record and register in Logic like before I downloaded that Voxal...now all I'm getting is a flat line waveform no matter what I do.

Try to remove the program from the Applications folder, Then restart your machine. After this reinstall again the program from the next link:  http://www.oldversiondownload.com/oldversions/voxal-5-12-2020-12-24(intel).zip

Try to run it again, if you keep getting issues contact Technical Support https://www.nch.com.au/support/supportcontact.html?software=Voxal

Hello - I have exactly the same problem. Guru's solution didn't work for me.

NCH tech support said: Please locate and delete the "VoxalVirtualDevice.driver" folder using Finder.

Well, Finder and I have looked in Extensions, Driver Extensions, but no luck finding this.

Any other ideas?

Try the next file path Library/Audio/Plug-Ins/HAL, delete the Voxal drive and restart the computer

Thanks, DannR. Actually, I needed to re-install my OS (for an unrelated reason), so I just went back a day in Time Machine, before I downloaded the Voxal app. I wish everything in life were that easy

This is the simplest way to remove an audio plug-in:
