madfolder (or the folder you used when installing MAD) and delete it.
If you installed sounddevice or other Python packages for MAD and want to clean them up:
- In Blender, open the Scripting tab.
- In the Python console, run:
import sys
print(sys.executable)This will print the path to Blender’s internal Python.
- Open Terminal and run:
/path/to/blender/python/bin/python3.11 -m pip uninstall sounddevice
Replace /path/to/blender/python/bin/python3.11 with the path you got from step 2.
MAD should now be fully uninstalled from your system.
- Now go get the latest version from the releases tab.
- Unzip the file and look for
install_mad_dependencies.pyand load that into Blender's scripting workspace and run it. - Then install the addon from the zip file.
