Positive Grid BIAS and Pro Series - Over the past decade, professional effects plug-ins have been about authentic analog emulation of original hardware, with either a black-box approach or circuit analysis and emulation. This gives musicians an easy-to-use user interface and faithful reproduction of analog tone in the digital domain.
Looking forward, the question is how we can create new tools to maximize the sound quality and usability with today’s new technology, with faster processors and memory, matching analysis, advanced nonlinear processing, and a cloud-based worldwide community. What can we do better, smarter, and more efficient?
Positive Grid teamed up the world’s brightest DSP engineers and component level modeling and matching authorities, working with the world’s leading producers, world-class engineers, and mixing & mastering gurus to develop some breakthrough technologies to bring software plug-ins to the next level.
Positive Grid BIAS FX - Over the last several years, a range of high processing powered digital guitar effects and mobile guitar apps have changed the way millions of guitarists play and record. The question is how we can create new tools to maximize the sound quality with today’s technology.
The result is BIAS FX. It’s designed from the ground up with no-compromise mindset on sound quality, it comes with all the greatest and latest algorithms from our audio signal processing research, it provides significantly detailed and authentic emulation of analog pedals and studio racks, it has dual custom BIAS Amp Match models integration and dual signal chain.
CUTTING EDGE
BIAS FX is equipped with the most advanced DSP sound engine with a beautifully designed interface, it’s seamlessly integrated with BIAS Amp Designer.
We then go beyond and create a cross-platform, amp-and-effects processor. Now for the first time, you can achieve high quality sound in the studio for recording and on iPad for live performance and practice.
NO COMPROMISE
Our approach on engineering BIAS FX is simply no-compromise, from a detailed touch in distortion emulation to the double precision algorithm in chorus, we strive for the best possible sound quality, and we keep working on newer and better updates.
DUAL BIAS AMP MATCH
Dual amps allow you to hybridize any guitar amp dynamics, EQ, cab and microphone combination, to provide huge sonic characteristics that is not possible with traditional setup.
BIAS FX makes to the next level by seamlessly integrated with BIAS Amp, it automatically imports custom BIAS Amp models and Amp Match models into BIAS FX’s amp menu, a complete guitar rigs heaven.
PEDALBOARDS ON THE CLOUD
Create, share or download pedalboards on ToneCloud, that simple.
There are hundreds of pedalboards available on ToneCloud, and the banquet keeps getting bigger and bigger: we are currently working with professional artists and session players from all over the world to create a massive, ever-growing community of virtual pedalboards and rigs for BIAS FX.

Positive Grid BIAS Amp is the world’s most accurate, thorough and versatile guitar-amp modeler and designer. Its advanced amp-modeling engine captures the warmth and feel of real tube amps in every aspect, component by component.
BIAS Amp is fully customizable, easily create amp models by swapping out the tubes, preamp, transformer, tone stacks, cab and mic to create your own custom amps and unique signature sound.
AMP MATCH YOUR TUBE AMPS
Accurately capture the sound of all your favorite tube amps. Amp Match Technology utilizes a collection of underlying technologies to analyze and compare your currently selected BIAS amp model and the sound of a target tube amplifier, its accompanying cabinet and the microphone used to capture its sound. It then executes the tonal compensation and enhancements needed to make your amp model’s sound accurately match that of the target tube amplifier.
AMP MATCH MODELS FROM TONECLOUD

- The tone-creation possibilities are now virtually infinite with BIAS Amp. Download artists’ signature amps, or try out the latest and most popular matched amp models created by your fellow guitarists.
- Positive Grid is currently working with session artists and engineers world-wide to create professional custom amp models and amp-matched models made from recordings in leading studios. Stay tuned, as more is coming.
Positive Grid BIAS Pedal uses the same logic of our revolutionary BIAS Amp designer, allowing you to virtually create your own distortion pedal from circuit guts to the transistors, tone match any distortion pedal. And you can create, share and download custom distortion pedals on ToneCloud. BIAS Pedal is seamlessly integrated with BIAS FX, now you can add your custom distortion to your BIAS FX pedalboard.
TONE MATCH ANY DISTORTION PEDAL
- Dive into your dream tone instantly by matching your favorite distortion, overdrive, fuzz, and boost pedals.
- BIAS Pedal Tone Match technology analyzes and compares your currently selected pedal and the sound of a target tube pedal. It then executes the tonal compensation and enhancements needed to make your pedal’s sound accurately match that of the target pedal.
MATCHING COMPRESSOR
The world’s first and unique compression matching works by measuring the dynamic response, pre and post filters, nonlinear transformer characteristics, and attack, release, and ratio curves to capture the nuanced sound of any compressor.
It accurately recreates the underlying architecture of the best compressors in the world, with the most intuitive user interface ever in a desktop plug-in. Audio engineers and musicians will now have virtual access to a wide assortment of the best compressors in the world, no longer limited by the traditional plugin architecture.
