It has clear digital buggy distortion. Sometimes I can get it to work, but then it breaks.

Lost Potential - Buggy on iPad Pro 11”

I really want to like this app. It has tremendous potential, but compared to the other Positive Grid apps it is quite buggy and crashes constantly.

The UI has not been updated for the latest iPads and I cannot log into Tone Cloud like I can for Bias FX2 or Bias Amp. Not sure if this is Abandonware, but it seems like it may be since the last update was 2 years ago. Pity.

Tone Cloud won’t let me login.

Tone Cloud doesn’t let me sign in but it works fine on Bias FX2 and Bias Amp. iPad 6th Gen IOS 16.4.

Fallen of the development schedule?

I’m a big fan of BIAS FX2 however BIAS Pedal seems to have lagged behind in development and has become less integrated with FX2.

It would be handy to hear from the developers as to whether or not Pedal is still a viable product.

I use BIAS FX 2 mobile, but i want to us this.

I can’t login to the Tone Cloud in Bias Pedal. But I’m logged in on biasfx. What’s the problem?

FAQ

What does BIAS Pedal do?

BIAS Pedal allows you to virtually design and create your own custom guitar effects pedals by controlling the internal circuitry. You can modify everything from input volume and effect stages to EQ and virtual components, much like working with a real analog pedal.

How does BIAS Pedal integrate with other Positive Grid apps?

It seamlessly integrates with BIAS FX, allowing you to add your custom-designed pedals to your BIAS FX pedalboard. Your custom pedals can be placed within the same signal chain as other effects like boosters, distortions, or fuzz pedals for live or studio use.

Can I share my custom pedals with others?

Yes, you can share your custom pedals on the BIAS Pedal ToneCloud®, where you can also download thousands of pedals created by other users and signature artists. This community feature allows for a vast library of unique tones to explore and use.

What kind of effects can I create with BIAS Pedal?

BIAS Pedal offers extensive customization for distortion, modulation, and delay effects. You can design your own distortion pedals with component-level emulations, and create unique delay sounds with intuitive time-control interfaces and various modulation styles.

Is BIAS Pedal available on multiple platforms?

Yes, BIAS Pedal features a cross-platform design, meaning it can be synced across Mac, Windows, and iOS devices. This allows for instant access and continued work on your custom pedals wherever you are.
