# Virtual Drivers for macOS > Seven virtual-device tools. One Mac app. Canonical page: https://pyrosoft.pro/software/virtual-drivers-macos Status: beta Platforms: macOS Virtual Drivers for macOS creates real virtual devices from one native Mac workspace: displays, audio loopback cables with a live mixer, cameras, MIDI endpoints, keyboards, mice and gamepads, a private encrypted packet interface, and disk images. It comes from the developers of the Windows Virtual Display Driver and Virtual Audio Driver and the Linux Virtual Display Driver. Each driver has its own Advanced section, and 28 workflow profiles set up common jobs such as streaming, remote work, meetings, presentations, music, game controls, private networking and portable storage. Cameras use a real source you choose (a display, window, app, physical camera, image or video), MIDI supports both 1.0 and 2.0/UMP with a built-in MIDI Lab, and storage images can be AES-256 encrypted. A bundled vdd command exposes everything to scripts as JSON. It is in Early Access for $14.99, on itch.io, as a Developer ID signed and notarized download for Apple Silicon Macs on macOS 14 or later (virtual HID devices need macOS 15). No SIP changes or reduced-security mode are required. The virtual display relies on an undocumented CoreGraphics interface, so behaviour can change with macOS updates, and HDR and display rotation aren't offered. Price: $14.99. ## Requirements Apple Silicon, macOS 14 or later; HID devices need macOS 15+; no SIP changes or reduced-security mode ## Features - Virtual displays: up to 16 modes, 23–240 Hz, HiDPI, sRGB or Display P3 - Up to eight stereo Core Audio loopback cables with a live mixer - Virtual cameras from a display, window, app, camera, image or video - CoreMIDI 1.0 and MIDI 2.0/UMP endpoints, plus an 88-key MIDI Lab - Virtual keyboard, mouse, gamepad and media controls (macOS 15+) - Encrypted private packet tunnel to a companion peer you run - AES-256 encrypted APFS, Mac OS Extended or ExFAT disk images - 28 workflow profiles and a JSON CLI (vdd) with 49 methods ## How to get it - [itch.io]() ## Recorded details - Version: 26.10.5.6 (build 41) - License: Proprietary (source not public) - First release: Oct 5, 2026, on itch.io (Early Access) - Tech: CoreGraphics, Core Audio, CoreMIDI, CoreHID ## Screenshots ![Virtual Drivers for macOS dashboard: a sidebar listing Display, Audio, Camera, MIDI, Network and Storage, a flagship virtual display card set to 2560 × 1440 at 60 Hz with HiDPI, and a suite status panel showing 6 drivers available on release 26.9.6.1](https://pyrosoft.pro/store-assets/media/469c79ffd9-960.webp) ![Virtual Display configuration page with a 2560 × 1440, 60 Hz HiDPI preview, four presets, resolution, refresh-rate and pixel-density fields, and placement buttons for right, left, above and below](https://pyrosoft.pro/store-assets/media/783ea92fe4-960.webp) ![Virtual Audio page showing the Core Audio HAL loopback cable, an authorized audio helper, and a Mixer and Loopback Matrix route from Virtual Audio Cable 1 to Virtual Audio Cable 2 with gain, mute, channel and latency controls](https://pyrosoft.pro/store-assets/media/a317556a7c-960.webp) ![MIDI Lab with a Grand Piano voice, volume, tone, drive, delay and reverb knobs, octave, velocity and channel controls, an on-screen piano keyboard and a Run Round-Trip Test button](https://pyrosoft.pro/store-assets/media/40b2e3729d-960.webp) ![Virtual Network page with an isolated packet-tunnel interface at the default address 10.42.0.2, MTU 1280, IPv4 and IPv6 addressing fields and an included route of 10.42.0.0/24](https://pyrosoft.pro/store-assets/media/525b39c2c3-960.webp) ![Virtual Storage page with a 16 GB APFS sparse-bundle volume named Virtual Workspace, capacity presets, and filesystem and image-type pickers](https://pyrosoft.pro/store-assets/media/cdf035a00d-960.webp) ## Questions ### Do I have to turn off System Integrity Protection? No. No SIP changes or reduced-security mode are required. macOS asks you to approve the audio helper and the camera and network extensions. ### Does a virtual display survive quitting the app? No. Displays last while the app is running. ### Is Virtual Network a VPN service? No. It's an encrypted private packet tunnel to a companion peer you configure and run yourself. No public VPN service is supplied, and public or default routes are blocked. ### Is it open source like the Windows driver? No. The Windows Virtual Display Driver is MIT-licensed, but Virtual Drivers for macOS is a separate app and its source isn't public. ### How do I know the download is genuine? Release 26.10.5.6 (build 41) is Developer ID signed, notarized by Apple and stapled, and PyroSoft checked that the files in the itch.io download match the signed release. The itch page lists its SHA-256: 3cea6a41c206aba41876699c7b778407ae66173d4352fc48952ca19be5616b79. ## Related guides and journals - [Advanced controls, shared workflows and the bundled CLI](https://pyrosoft.pro/blog/advanced-controls-shared-workflows-and-the-bundled-cli.md) - [Real camera sources, HID reports and a private peer tunnel](https://pyrosoft.pro/blog/real-camera-sources-hid-reports-and-a-private-peer-tunnel.md) - [Teaching the suite to recover its own devices](https://pyrosoft.pro/blog/teaching-the-suite-to-recover-its-own-devices.md) - [Testing what the Mac devices actually deliver](https://pyrosoft.pro/blog/testing-what-the-mac-devices-actually-deliver.md) - [From a Mac virtual display to a driver suite](https://pyrosoft.pro/blog/from-a-mac-virtual-display-to-a-driver-suite.md)
