MetalVoice

AI-Powered Noise Suppression for macOS

<p> <b>MetalVoice</b> uses state-of-the-art Deep Learning (DeepFilterNet) to eliminate background noise and room reverb in real-time. <br> Built exclusively for <b>Apple Silicon</b>, leveraging the Neural Engine for zero-latency performance. </p> <a href="https://github.com/Ghostkwebb/MetalVoice/releases/latest/download/MetalVoice_v1.0.zip"> <img src="https://img.shields.io/badge/Download-MetalVoice_v1.0-blue?style=for-the-badge&logo=apple&logoColor=white" alt="Download MetalVoice" /> </a> </div> <br />

[!IMPORTANT] Requirement: This application REQUIRES a Mac with Apple Silicon (M1, M2, M3, or newer). It relies on the Apple Neural Engine and Metal Performance Shaders optimized for these chips. It will not work on Intel Macs.

✨ Features

• 🚫 Silence the Noise: Instantly removes fans, typing, air conditioning, and background chatter.
• 🗣️ Studio Clarity: De-reverberation clears up "roomy" echoes, making you sound like you're in a studio.
• ⚡ Zero Latency Feel: Optimized Metal pipeline ensures negligible delay tailored for real-time communication.
• 🔒 Privacy First: 100% On-Device. Your voice is processed locally on your Neural Engine. No data leaves your Mac.
• 🛠️ Universal: Works with any microphone (USB, XLR, Built-in) and outputs to any app via virtual cables.

1. Launch: Look for the Waveform Icon 🌊 in your menu bar.
2. Select Input: Click the gear ⚙️ icon. Set Input Device to your physical microphone.
3. Select Output: Set Output Device to a Virtual Audio Cable (Recommended: BlackHole 2ch).
   • This routes the "Clean" audio into the cable.
4. Configure Apps: inside Discord/Zoom/OBS, set your Microphone Input to that same Virtual Cable (e.g., BlackHole 2ch).
5. Enable AI: Toggle the switch ON in the MetalVoice menu. Enjoy crystal clear audio!
