How do I remove MJAudioRecorder from my Mac?


Can someone please tell me how I can remove this Audio Device, or provide me with a link to instructions? FYI: I have tried removing it using "Midi", unfortunately it does not allow you to delete it.


PLEASE HELP!!

Thanks in advance.

MacBook Pro 13", macOS 10.15

HI BDAqua, a small update.


I installed Sidify and had exactly the same issue - MJAudioRecorder. (So Sidify records the audio it downloads). I had to dig about via a typo 'MjAduioRecorder' for the complete solution - the one you found plus another file:-


In addition to removing the driver, there's also the LaunchDaemon file that opens it at startup. So:-


  • Open /Library/Audio/Plug-Ins/HAL folder in finder.
  • Delete the MJRecorderDevice.driver folder.
  • Open  /Library/LaunchDaemons/
  • Delete com.mingjie.mjrecorder.agent.plist 
  • Restart


The plugin file is the main one - the .plist is just a bit of extra housekeeping to reunite orphan and parent as they leave your machine, and maybe save a few milliseconds or so on startup.
