BIAS Amp 2 Elite
You'll probably agree with those of us at Sweetwater who think that amp modeling is pretty cool. It generally sounds pretty amazing these days, and for most of us, it's way more feasible than hauling a truckload of amps to and from gigs and the studio. In addition to an advanced amp-modeling engine that emulates the warmth and feel of real tube amps, BIAS Amp 2 Elite lets you capture the sound of all your favorite tube amps. Positive Grid's Amp Match Technology analyzes and compares your currently selected BIAS amp model and the sound of a target tube amp, its speaker cabinet, and the microphones used to capture its sound. It then implements the tonal compensation and enhancements necessary to make your custom amp model sound like your target tube amp.
BIAS FX Elite
BIAS FX Elite is a virtual pedalboard for your guitar rig. Component-level modeling gives these effects a responsive, nuanced character. In all, BIAS FX Elite offers 52 effects pedals, 10 rack processors, and 32 amp models, plus even more on the way. Create your own custom effects rig complete with dual signal paths, dual amp processing, and flexible signal splitting. Share your virtual pedalboard online with other BIAS FX Elite users. Positive Grid BIAS FX Elite is an outstanding solution for creating a virtual effects pedalboard.
Acoustic Signature Pack Expansion
Get the Acoustic Signature Pack Expansion for your BIAS FX software to maximize your acoustic-electric guitar tone. It adds four powerful modules to BIAS FX: Acoustic Image, Acoustic EQ/Chorus/Reverb, Acoustic Simulator and Acoustic Preamp. The Acoustic Preamp and EQ/Chorus/Reverb modules help you optimize the tone, dynamics, and character of your acoustic-electric guitar. Use the Acoustic Image module to make your guitar's electronics sound like a studio microphone. And the Acoustic Simulator allows you to capture acoustic tones with your electric guitar. The Positive Grid Acoustic Signature Pack Expansion is a great solution for optimizing your acoustic-electric guitar tone.
Bass Signature Pack Expansion
Make your BIAS FX software your complete solution for epic bass tone with the Bass Signature Pack Expansion. In all, you get seven processors to shape your tone, manage dynamics, and add effects optimized for bass guitar. These modules include Bass Preamp, Overdrive, EQ, Compressor, and three modulation effects, based on some of the most widely used bass processors and pedals of all time. BIAS FX software is already loaded with great guitar effects, and with the Bass Signature Pack Expansion, you can make it a powerhouse for your electric bass as well.
Metal Signature Pack Expansion
Add a range of aggressive sonic tools to your BIAS FX software with the Metal Signature Pack Expansion. Positive Grid worked closely with three masters of modern metal — Jeff Loomis, Ola Englund, and Keith Marrow — to bring you six amps and six effects that are tailor-made for savage metal tone. The amps range from clean to high-gain insanity. The effects and processors include Overdrive, Distortion, Delay, EQ, Noise Gate, and Chorus. If you play rock or metal and use BIAS FX to shape your tone, you need the Metal Signature Pack Expansion.
BIAS Pedal
At Sweetwater, distortion is a food group. Not only an essential effect for electric guitarists, distortion in all its myriad flavors is a savory ingredient of many awesome synth and percussion sounds. But from mild crunch to heavy overdrive to full fuzz-fest, guitar is distortion's home turf. Borrowing tech from Positive Grid's acclaimed BIAS Amp designer, BIAS Pedal invites you to create your own virtual stompbox, complete from circuit to transistors. You can also use BIAS Pedal to tone match your favorite distortion pedal.
BIAS Delay
Add dimension to your guitar tracks with Positive Grid BIAS Delay. Delay and modulation modules enable you to craft an entire universe of interesting sounds. And you can add the modulation to either your entire signal path or just the echo repeats. An array of delay flavors are on tap, including standard, ping-pong, tape, and reverse, while the modulation module includes chorus, flanger, phaser, and tremolo effects. BIAS Delay boasts several essential features, such as tap tempo, a noise gate, an amp room simulator, a trio of EQs, and more. And for more sounds, you can download presets from ToneCloud.
BIAS Modulation
Inject your tracks with depth and dimension with Positive Grid BIAS Modulation. Blaze new sonic trails with chorus and tremolo modules. An entire universe of modulation flavors are at your disposal, both pitch-based like chorus, vibrato, flanger, rotary, and phaser effects; and amplitude-based like tremolo, pan, ring modulator, and auto swell. BIAS Modulation is loaded with must-have features, such as a noise gate, an amp room simulator, a trio of EQs, and more. You can also download presets from ToneCloud if you need more sounds.
