BIAS Amp 2 Professional

Your tone is your identity and sometimes nothing less than a custom setup can deliver the goods.

Create authentic and mind-blowing tones that can be tweaked and fully customized.

BIAS AMP 2 is the ultimate virtual amp designer, authentically recreating the tone and feel of real tube amplifiers, while allowing you to mix and match components to create your ideal amp. You can use Amp Match to clone the tone of real hardware or a guitar track, or connect to the ToneCloud® to gain access to thousands of custom amps from artists and recording studios, or upload your own custom tones to the cloud. 

BIAS AMP 2 represents a revolution in virtual amplifier design, providing the tools to take your ultimate guitar tone with you anywhere, from the studio to the stage and back again.

Lush Reverbs

BIAS AMP 2 also includes nine built-in reverbs, ranging from huge halls to intimate rooms with full control over the character of the reverbs. Between the different reverb types and the extensive filtering and saturation options, BIAS AMP 2 has all your reverb needs covered.

New Amp Match

AMP Match can already match the tone of any mic’d reference amp, but we’ve made it even better in BIAS AMP 2: now matching a tone is as easy as importing an audio file!

You’ll get faster and better results no matter what your skill level is, making it even easier to get to your ideal tone.

Enhanced Authenticity

AMP Match utilizes a collection of underlying technologies to analyze and compare your currently selected BIAS amp model and the sound of a target tube amplifier, including the speaker cabinet and microphone. It then executes the tonal compensation and enhancements needed to make your amp model’s sound accurately match that of the target tube amplifier.

Even if you’re not interested in matching amps yourself, you can still take advantage of the power of AMP Match by connecting to the Positive Grid ToneCloud and enjoy 100 new custom AMP Match presets. There are thousands more from artists, recording studios and guitarists from around the world.

BIAS Pedal Delay

Rock ‘n’ Roll Just Entered a New Dimension

BIAS Pedal first rocked the guitar world with its embedded guitar-tone booster, the groundbreaking BIAS Distortion. Now comes the second storm: BIAS Delay.

Available both as a cross-platform plug-in and iPad app, BIAS Delay travels effortlessly between studio and stage. And of course, it’s ToneCloud-ready.

Two 8-band graphic equalizers can be placed at various points along the signal chain with drag-and-drop ease to finely sculpt your overall tone. BIAS Delay gives you infinite tonal possibilities in a fast, intuitive interface.

Wet the Effect

BIAS Delay is all about time-based effects—coloured with every timbre imaginable. Choose among four delay types to start: Standard for pristine digital delays, Tape for saturated vintage sound, Ping Pong for cruise ship-wide echo trails, and Reverse for ear-bending backward envelopes. Manual delay times from 1 to 3000 ms dish out every kind of delay-based effect from doubling to slapback to long echoes arriving from the next zip code. In the studio, sync BIAS Delay to your DAW for delay times ranging from a 32nd-note to a whole note, including dotted notes and triplets.
