v0.4.0-macos-VoxKit

Note

To leverage MFA tools like alignment in VoxKit, Montreal Forced Aligner must be installed separately on your system using Conda as the package manager. VoxKit will detect it automatically if it's available on your PATH.

Installation

1. Download VoxKit-macOS.dmg
2. Drag the application bundle to your Applications folder
3. Open a terminal:

# Run the following
xattr -cr ../VoxKit.app
# This disables macOS quarantine mode (for apps downloaded from the internet)

4. You're all set to open the application, the startup script will download some assets like models and initialize the local storage on the first open (be patient please)

# FYI deleting local storage will trigger a fresh startup the next time the app is opened
rm -rf ~/.voxkit

System Requirements

• macOS 26 or later
• Works on Apple Silicon Macs (arm64)
• Montreal Forced Aligner (installed via Conda); required for MFA engine tools

Changes

• Enhance dataset registration with optional hand alignment by @BeckettFrey in #129
