I do software FX on my guitar using my Mac and a USB interface, but the produced output sound goes back to the interface – I can listen to it but I can't record it on my Mac, only the input sound device pre-FX.
I'm aware of "virtual cables" and "virtual sound cards" but I understand Windows for instance can allow direct capture of a sound-card output.
Is this something available on macOS and if so, which versions – and any general information I should know?

Apple's really crappy UI with useless documentation for MacOS's audio is the Audio Midi Setup. Once you find and open it, select menu Window/Show Audio Devices.
That in conjunction with some virtual audio routing software like Soundflower may get you want you need.
