Virtual amp building on a computer isn't a new concept: Peavey's ReValver started and continues the trend, but BIAS takes it in another direction, especially with the opportunities that the amp matching facilities and ToneCloud opens up. This works really well, allowing you to effectively model your own amp but, more than that, you can also get access to exclusive models on ToneCloud that others have matched, with all the possibilities that that entails.

Any amps you create can be shared online with other BIAS users via the built-in ToneCloud facility, and, likewise, you can download amps that others have created.īIAS Professional takes things further by adding three Amp Design Expansion Packs (Glassy, Crunch and Insane), but its unique feature is Amp Matching Technology, where you can make any BIAS amp match the tone of a real-world amp/cabinet/microphone setup.įirst off, you need to choose a BIAS model that's closest to your target sound, take a quick sample of that target sound by either playing live through a mic'd amp or playing it back from a recorded track on your DAW, and let the software carry out the tonal compensation and enhancement needed to make the BIAS amp model accurately match it. You can save any amps you make into the memory and assign eight favourites to a front-panel grid for instant recall with just one mouse click. For editing, you can swap whole components: change a Fender tonestack for a Marshall one perhaps, or get into the adjustable parameters of a component, such as changing the valves or moving the plethora of knobs for some very subtle tonal shading.
