Regarding editor/plug-in editor support for each product, refer to the most recent OS compatibility table.

https://voxamps.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/12/Mac_CompatibilityChart-VOX_en.pdf

2.Uninstalling the VOX USB-MIDI Driver

Use the following procedure to uninstall the USB-MIDI Driver.

(1) To uninstall the VOX USB-MIDI driver, download the uninstaller from here, and run it.

https://www.korg.com/us/support/download/driver/1/285/3856/

* Use this to uninstall the VOX USB-MIDI Driver as well.

(2) When driver uninstallation is completed, restart the computer, use a USB cable to connect the VOX product, and start the software that you use. The connected device is detected by the default Apple driver.

Thank you for your continued use of VOX products.
