Unable to install scaper through pip on macOS

I ran 'pip install scaper' in the terminal, but got error:

@Lilibar-s Did you fix this by any chance?

I fixed it by creating a condo env

brew install ffmpeg
conda install -c conda-forge sox
pip install scaper

I'm having the same problem on Mac osx 11.7.10

I fixed it by creating a condo env

brew install ffmpeg
conda install -c conda-forge sox
pip install scaper

This actually worked for me.
