Hi. So all I need to record my guitar is an iRig and my iPad? Can you import tracks onto garage band, such as recorded drums? I'm literally looking for an interface that I can use, cheaply, to record guitar on the drums I record on my electronic set. I also heard with a different USB cable, you can use the Spark amp instead of BiasFX? Is this true? I don't want to spend money on an iRig if it doesn't work good. Thanks in advance
@@andymcmillan9260 Garage band you can import drum tracks. And yes to the iRig and Ipad. I don't know about this Spark amp though. Garage band is a pretty simple DAW. But it gets the job done. Its got some drum samples already in it and a bunch of other instruments etc.
@@andymcmillan9260 On ipad air 2 ios 15 I get a bad sound with bias fx 1, amplitube, and garageband using irig 1. But I did get it to work perfectly with tonebridge probably because it is lighter on cpu usage. Though I did connect a toy amp to the irig using a simple adapter which you are not supposed to do because u get feedback. Guess what I got feedback, but luckily my caline power supply has a di box so I passed the signal through there and then the feedback was gone.
If we don't have studio speakers, what's the best way to get this signal to your amp? Plus what settings would you have on your amp to play through. Thanks.
One thing different I did on the guitar match feature in the Desktop version is that I used a capo on each fret to get a consistent pressure and sound from each string.
Love the BIAS FX 2, but few concerns. 1. How do you connect guitar to the iPad 2. How will it all sound through the internal iPad speakers? or what if you add a bluetooth speaker to the mix? and dammit what about Android :(
You need a USB interface. David mentioned the irig. They're good. On the cheaper end, you can get a Behringer for around $35. You need either headphones or external speakers to listen. You CAN use the ipad's speakers, but it'll sound awful. As for android, you can't use this for that. Android has too much latency to make this kind of thing work properly. The only app that works for android (by coding its own USB engine inside the app) is Deplike. If you insist on sticking with android, give that app a try.
You would simply use an audio interface. You can pick up something like a used Apogee Jam or variant from IK Multimedia on the cheap for probably less than $40 USD. I personally think the Apogee interfaces are cleaner and produce less noise but honestly it shouldn’t matter much. If you only want to hear sounds via the iPads speakers, the Apogee will be all that you need. Using a Bluetooth speaker wont work as your iPad will see that as the sound device and will takeover the lightning interface for audio. What I used to do was use the headphone out to a portable amp or effects return etc. If you want to integrate with an existing amp and or reamp etc., the IK interfaces may be more beneficial to you as some of their interfaces support amp / midi connections. Regarding Android, I don’t think you will see these applications ported to that platform anytime soon due to the horrendous latency with the OS. Another plus to the interfaces is that most are macOS and PC supported.
Hey Fluff, what are you using as an interface for your guitar and your iPad? I Still haven’t found a budget friendly replacement for the irig2 since the removed apple headphone jack.
You need the camera adapter with charging port. I’m so bummed I can’t use my original irig any more. When I upgraded my phone I went with the scarlet solo. You have to keep your charging cable in to power your phone. The battery still drains slowly, so the fast charger is another purchase for keeping you going for awhile. Just way too many things vs the simple irig. I miss the old setup.
I use a irig 2 HD with a lightning to micro usb to connect it to my iPhone.... or get a Belkin rockstar adaptor and you can charge your phone while using the irig 2 HD
Seems cool, but what We’re really needing is a good drum option for metal that can be used as a plugin & programmed with midi in GarageBand/fl or Cubase 🙏
I had a hard time understanding too, and I've recorded voice overs for movies, but everyone acted like this was common sense. you have to get a USB audio interface, it's like a little amp that turns the guitar tone digital, the sound is carried to the computer with usb, but then the audio comes out computer speakers. Any decent computer speakers will work, I have the desktop version of this and it sounds amazing.
I'm so glad you said this. I felt really dumb not knowing how you connect your guitar to the computer & none of these reviews ever even mention it! What's up with these guys?
About to start teaching guitar again. Was using FX 1 mobile for ages but I think I'll have a go at FX 2 for today's lesson. Can't wait to give it a try.
I upgraded from FX to FX2 on my Ipad. Did get a "special price" for having a Bias Subscription. Unfortunately the Midi doesn't work yet, they say it will be available in July.
*I have to say this is what I’m using and it is quite effective! ❤️🔥❤️🔥❤️🔥❤️🔥 I use 8-string guitars and 6-string guitars. If you can use an EQ…. you’ll be ok. 🎧🎵🎶🎸 Great review! Definitely dig you showing some metal and off types of sounds.*
Fluff, great review of Bias FX 2 Mobile!! What interface are you using to go from your guitar to your IOS device? I notice your tone/signal is nice and clean, even with high gain, you have normal amp hiss. Currently, I experience horrible popping, cracking, hissing and noises through my interface. My question isn't intended to get troubleshooting, just curious what you use since I am a novice and trying to figure out how to get good clean signals. Thank you for the awesome videos!!
@@Slicknick. use a noise gate for that. Buzzing and crackling all come from EMI from the pick ups. If you have Humbuckers or noise cancelling pick ups then you won't get any buzzing. Otherwise, noise gate my friend
It works with my Donner guitar interface which came out this year. Though you have to select right speaker then it works. Maybe that is channel 2,not sure if it is stereo but it sound comes from both speakers. This interface also works with garageband and does sound stereo.
Hi Beard, excellent channel, congrats... quick question, how do you get rid of background noise from 10:09 ? Im struggling with some clean tones, they are completely hiss-sounding. (using noise gate as workaround). Thanks.
That's a perpetual issue from EMI. The only workaround is getting humbuckers or noise cancelling pickups, but then you might not like it and it's expensive. It might be a grounding issue, but there isn't anything you can do as far as grounding. Really the only realistic fix is noise gate...
I sure hope it sounds better than in this video, because Mooer’s GE Labs clobbered BIAS FX when it was released last month. Don’t believe me? Go try it, it’s free in the Apple App Store.
Yeah but can you use Gelabs in a DAW for recording? Looked at the description and there is no mention of AUV3, IAA, or Audiobus. Without that ability it’s just a toy. I’m downloading it right now as I type this and hope I’m wrong. Anyway I’m not buying anymore Positive Grid apps until they get rid of the annoying ‘your iPad is not connected to an audio interface’ popup warning that can’t be turned off, it happens even when my RME Babyface Pro is hooked up, but I use bias a lot for keyboard stuff too which doesn’t need an audio interface. Ok off to check out this Moore thing. Thanks for mentioning it.
Exclusive! Thanks for the sneak peak. Can’t wait to work with it. I hope I don’t have two different apps (bias fx iOS and the new bias fx 2 mobile) when it is released. This is plenty app and a familiar interface compared to the desktop version.
Would I be able to connect my Boss Katana to my pc and use it as a speaker for Bias Fx, I don’t want to really use headphones or spend money I don’t need to on speakers I don’t need. Thanks!
Any benefits of using Bias FX 2 (desktop) over Bias Amps 2 (desktop)? I have the standard version of Bias Amps 2 and then a lite version of the Bias FX 2 app. Only big difference I see is that you can set up a amp and effect rig with FX 2.
@@davidweier I have Bias FX 2 Pro on PC and the mobile version is free for me when I click the link to the app store. Now I just need to find a used Ipad.

Any recommendations for IPad Pro interfaces? I have an iRig2 but when I try some dongles it ends up with a weird noise in the background like a constant beep that gets amplified by the effects... is there any usbC friendly ready for live performance interface you can recommend me?
I have the Ipad Pro 2018 11” and currently using it with an SSL 2 audio interface. It operates with USB C. Superb interface with super clean signal and lowest floor noise compared with any other interfaces out there. Plus it can be powered by the Ipad Pro independently without needing an extra power hub. I had the same problem as you previously and I made the right choice with the SSL 2. Alot of other interfaces still need additional power hub to operate with the ipad pro but the SSL 2 is an exception.
Do you know if is possible to restore presets from Bias FX Mobile to Bias FX Mobile 2? I've tried the standard backup/restore routine and it did not work
Generally speaking how are you guys connecting your guitar to your phone? Ive hears of the irigs but I dont have an I phone looking for another route to go thanks!!!!
jose quintero you need a cell that supports usb audio for the most part and iOS seems to be the only game in town currently and probably for the foreseeable future with Android.
I bought an IPAD only to use it with applications like PG or synths. If you wanne go to this road, eg. for homerecording or in my case just reduce the cable chaos in the livingroom :-) only the Apple stuff works good. And you need an audio adapter. IK ore one of the more feature rich systems. If you don't have this stuff buy their new amp. Less or more the same features and no need to buy and expensive iPhone or iPad.
You shouldn’t have any latency using the iPad , it might be your interface being the source of latency. Try lowering or raising your sample rate and find the sweet spot for recording.
@@AndGuitar I agree. Irig, iPad 6th generation and Blueboard with no latency at all and I didn't change any settings, just left them as is. I've also played out with this setup and not had any issues and some good compliments on my sound.
I'm totally new to using computers for plugging a guitar into. My frame of reference is plugging my guitar into an amp and fiddling with knobs. But I am getting increasingly interested in using Bias FX 2. My understanding is that I can get an audio interface, ie Focusrite, plug my guitar and earphones into that - plug the interface into my computer in which Bias FX is loaded and have all those amps and pedals to experiment with through the earphones. Is that correct? I don't think I need a separate DAW but I might be wrong. But if I want to hear the guitar through a speaker, I understand studio monitors like KRK Rokit 5 or 7 would be what I need. Do I need a pair or will a single unit work? Will a single monitor sound like crap or will it be OK? Thanks
Hey Bob saw no one hasn't replied yet. I'm extremely new in plugins, but from my Spark amp I noticed that to get that "Full" sound/audio quality you want a pair of speakers not just one. Normally outputs have a left and a right. On the end if not a left and right they have a headphone jack you plug into your computer or audio interface Hopefully that helps.
This is one a several BIAS FX 2 mobile demos I seen yet nobody seems to be covering a critical issue - how do you get the guitar signal to the mobile device?
I wrote to Overloud, Positive Grid and Mooer and asked about AUv3 support for TH-U mobile, Bias FX 2 mobile and GE Labs, respectively. They wrote back the following: - Overloud (June 8, 2020): Currently the app doesn’t support IAA nor AUv3, however we are working on it and in the next weeks we will release a new version (same app tho) that include the AUv3. So you won’t need to purchase it again. - Positive Grid (June 11, 2020): We will not support AUv3. - Mooer: No answer, yet. (June 11, 2020)
Positive Grid has totally screwed themselves. They put out an amazing product with the Spark amp. But they couldn’t match the demand for the product. People waiting 6-8 months for this amp. That is bad, but then, they keep advertising the amp everywhere and they still can’t meet the demand. Seems like a poorly ran company.
If you buy a product of PG you must accept that their customer support is a crap. Look into their forums before buy. A lot of issues no fix. Great product, but the customer communication is terrible. If you do not have any problems great products but somethings goes in the wrong direction you're lost.
Let’s get one thing clear this is great but all in app purchases and pedals do not transfer over from fx 1 though they state they do. For example treble booster, octaves, auto wah. Also many of the basic pedals eg digital reverb, fuzz, reverb rack that came free with fx 1 etc are gone. You need to buy the basic licence to get these back and to get functionality with Bias Amp 2 and Bias Pedal to work. Really Positive Grid should have allowed customers to get everything they purchased previously by getting customers to to pay a flat rate. Really disappointed.
Hi, any leaked messages from positive grid team what’s going to happen with previous upgrade purchases? I invested already buying extra stuff they offered at first BiasFX.
Bias isn't bad, but they do a lot of marketing and they pay a lot of artists a lot of money to do demos of their products only for no one to use them afterward. And it's for a reason. There are so many plugins and amp sims that are far easier to use and they get way better tones. Bias is extremely difficult to get decent tones out of, and I'm not the only person who thinks this. If you guys want some good amp sims, look into the Neural DSP or STL Tones plugins. They're far better.
Extremely difficult? I gotta disagree. The difference between quality of tones with bias and neural, etc is marginal. There's no good reason to choose one over the other
Things I don’t like. There isn’t Inter-app, there is not drum anymore. Too bad, I don’t care about sounding different guitar, others maybe... but why to take out something that was cool before.
Honestly the products are good but you gotta warn people of the abismal handeling the sparks presale. If you want any physical product from this company be prepaired to wait half a year
These tones are awesome, wasn't a huge believer in tablet/phone effects apps and stuff but this has me sold on it. Great video as per usual!
I would save the money and invest into STL Tonehub, where you get all their Axe Fx and Kemper tones in plugin form. I have both plugins and sound as well as dynamics are much better

Any recommendations for IPad Pro interfaces? I have an iRig2 but when I try some dongles it ends up with a weird noise in the background like a constant beep that gets amplified by the effects... is there any usbC friendly ready for live performance interface you can recommend me?
Gustavo Muro Marchani buy a usb c camera adapter and use a basic interface.
Try the MOTU M2
I have the Ipad Pro 2018 11” and currently using it with an SSL 2 audio interface. It operates with USB C. Superb interface with super clean signal and lowest floor noise compared with any other interfaces out there. Plus it can be powered by the Ipad Pro independently without needing an extra power hub. I had the same problem as you previously and I made the right choice with the SSL 2. Alot of other interfaces still need additional power hub to operate with the ipad pro but the SSL 2 is an exception.
What is the best interface for IPad Pro and Headphones?
Thanks! Where is the inter app audio effect into the signal chain from Bias FX 1 mobile?
Do you know if is possible to restore presets from Bias FX Mobile to Bias FX Mobile 2? I've tried the standard backup/restore routine and it did not work
Does it work with or enhance spark?
Generally speaking how are you guys connecting your guitar to your phone? Ive hears of the irigs but I dont have an I phone looking for another route to go thanks!!!!
jose quintero buy an iphone
@@Ottophil hahahahaha yeah thats one way to do
jose quintero you need a cell that supports usb audio for the most part and iOS seems to be the only game in town currently and probably for the foreseeable future with Android.
I bought an IPAD only to use it with applications like PG or synths. If you wanne go to this road, eg. for homerecording or in my case just reduce the cable chaos in the livingroom :-) only the Apple stuff works good. And you need an audio adapter. IK ore one of the more feature rich systems. If you don't have this stuff buy their new amp. Less or more the same features and no need to buy and expensive iPhone or iPad.
Thanks guys i have a spare iphone 6 lying around the house gonna move on over to the darkside seems like my best option
What about the latency?
My current Bias FX is very frustrating though iPad Pro because of the delay.
You shouldn’t have any latency using the iPad , it might be your interface being the source of latency. Try lowering or raising your sample rate and find the sweet spot for recording.
@@AndGuitar I agree. Irig, iPad 6th generation and Blueboard with no latency at all and I didn't change any settings, just left them as is. I've also played out with this setup and not had any issues and some good compliments on my sound.
Does this work with Iphone11
What interface did you use?
I'm wondering too
I'm totally new to using computers for plugging a guitar into. My frame of reference is plugging my guitar into an amp and fiddling with knobs. But I am getting increasingly interested in using Bias FX 2. My understanding is that I can get an audio interface, ie Focusrite, plug my guitar and earphones into that - plug the interface into my computer in which Bias FX is loaded and have all those amps and pedals to experiment with through the earphones. Is that correct? I don't think I need a separate DAW but I might be wrong. But if I want to hear the guitar through a speaker, I understand studio monitors like KRK Rokit 5 or 7 would be what I need. Do I need a pair or will a single unit work? Will a single monitor sound like crap or will it be OK?
Thanks
Hey Bob saw no one hasn't replied yet. I'm extremely new in plugins, but from my Spark amp I noticed that to get that "Full" sound/audio quality you want a pair of speakers not just one. Normally outputs have a left and a right. On the end if not a left and right they have a headphone jack you plug into your computer or audio interface Hopefully that helps.
@@j.a.s.1416 Thanks.
@@BobEstremeraHey no problem. And your right audio interface and plug-in no DAW needed just to play. 40% off Bias Fx right now.
How do we run a setup for stage use?
Can I use Looper to play in the background while I dial in my Tone?
How do you connect guitar to your iPad Pro ?
I have bias fx 2 on pc... Do i get it on moble for free?
How your record Bro?
Got to beta test this over the last 3 months or so. Really enjoyed it actually
Can you access tonecloud on the beta?
Me too. It was crap compared to the first version
Simon Labrecque no
@@Stringprodigy k, same for me. Basically useless to me until I can use tonecloud and/or import my presets from the original BiasFX...
can this bias fx works on windows laptop ?
This is one a several BIAS FX 2 mobile demos I seen yet nobody seems to be covering a critical issue - how do you get the guitar signal to the mobile device?
The same way it’s always done, use a usb audio interface compatible with the iPhone and or iPad.
Get irig or melo audio has an interface too for ios
Here's a crazy concept, try typing in a Google search for it...woah!
I wrote to Overloud, Positive Grid and Mooer and asked about AUv3 support for TH-U mobile, Bias FX 2 mobile and GE Labs, respectively. They wrote back the following:
- Overloud (June 8, 2020): Currently the app doesn’t support IAA nor AUv3, however we are working on it and in the next weeks we will release a new version (same app tho) that include the AUv3. So you won’t need to purchase it again.
- Positive Grid (June 11, 2020): We will not support AUv3.
- Mooer: No answer, yet. (June 11, 2020)
Thank you
What happen if i bought the Elite desktop version?
Wonder how this compares to the PC/MAC versions.....
You didn’t show the most important feature, namely, the custom IR loader. IMO, that’s the only reason to switch to version 2.0 of biasfx mobile.
This. 100 fucking percent this. And the dreaded iaa buzz breakage bug
Plus Bias FX 2 has snapshots!
Will we be seeing the saber in your live rig when you start touring again? Also, will you do a demo on the sterling majesty?
how would you connect the guitar to a phone?
You need an audio interface like the irig pro.
If anyone can give me some advice, When I use the app I get digital audio artifacting.
Please tell me we get an AUv3 this time. I really need to be able to use this in an iOS DAW
IAA, Audiobus - but no AUv3. That´s what the spces are saying
Hahaha AUv3? Yea fucking right. Took them this long to add an IR loader
AUv3 nope, so the old shit goes on.
Positive Grid has totally screwed themselves. They put out an amazing product with the Spark amp. But they couldn’t match the demand for the product. People waiting 6-8 months for this amp. That is bad, but then, they keep advertising the amp everywhere and they still can’t meet the demand. Seems like a poorly ran company.
If you buy a product of PG you must accept that their customer support is a crap. Look into their forums before buy. A lot of issues no fix. Great product, but the customer communication is terrible. If you do not have any problems great products but somethings goes in the wrong direction you're lost.
Let’s get one thing clear this is great but all in app purchases and pedals do not transfer over from fx 1 though they state they do. For example treble booster, octaves, auto wah. Also many of the basic pedals eg digital reverb, fuzz, reverb rack that came free with fx 1 etc are gone. You need to buy the basic licence to get these back and to get functionality with Bias Amp 2 and Bias Pedal to work. Really Positive Grid should have allowed customers to get everything they purchased previously by getting customers to to pay a flat rate. Really disappointed.
How to reduce noise from bias FX 2
Can anyone tell me how you actually use his thing with a guitar?
You hook up via an audio interface like the irig series.
@@BluNoseReindeer Thanks man
Is this compatible with Android???
No! Only iOS!
Show us the acoustic pack. Specifically the simulators.
Hi, any leaked messages from positive grid team what’s going to happen with previous upgrade purchases? I invested already buying extra stuff they offered at first BiasFX.
I remember reading that upgrade packs will be transferred from v1 to v2, can't find where I read it though.
IMO...Overloud TH-U Rig Player + Choptones profiles is the CLOSEST thing to a Kemper or an AxeFx as far as tone and dynamics is concerned.

Bias isn't bad, but they do a lot of marketing and they pay a lot of artists a lot of money to do demos of their products only for no one to use them afterward. And it's for a reason. There are so many plugins and amp sims that are far easier to use and they get way better tones. Bias is extremely difficult to get decent tones out of, and I'm not the only person who thinks this. If you guys want some good amp sims, look into the Neural DSP or STL Tones plugins. They're far better.
Not so much, load good irs and it's pretty decent though
Extremely difficult? I gotta disagree. The difference between quality of tones with bias and neural, etc is marginal. There's no good reason to choose one over the other
Neural or STL do not have phone/tablet apps.. These apps are for mobile use. You plan on recording a studio album with your phone?
Help, how do I load Archetype: Plini onto my iPad?
Apples and oranges, dude
@@VapnFagan I just mean bias products in general. I have gotten good tones but overall I just don't enjoy their high gain amps.
love that dixxon, baby!!!
Guitar plugged into phone, keep up the good work 😂
Hopefully they'll support Android soon.

Android kind of bites for audio applications
@@johnnewton1830 android is way more versatile than IOS but the developers want the money apple offers them for exclusivity.
Constantinos Mavroyannis it’s more versatile but android os is inherently bad regarding lack for low latency and overall support for usb audio

Things I don’t like. There isn’t Inter-app, there is not drum anymore. Too bad, I don’t care about sounding different guitar, others maybe... but why to take out something that was cool before.
Honestly the products are good but you gotta warn people of the abismal handeling the sparks presale. If you want any physical product from this company be prepaired to wait half a year
You mean in the middle of a pandemic, shipping of these kinds of products may be delayed?
