I almost bought this yesterday but the reviews aren't very good. Couldn't take the risk over getting Scarlett 3rd gen. This was my first option though.
Just tried the Bias fx 2 myself and found no recommendations about needing an interface when buying the $210 download! You have that mixer on screen, so do I, but no way to use it with this and my PC. Can only go through the PC so one volume for everything! I have Spotify for songs, the mixer for guitar volume but all of this in this method only goes through the PC which goes into the mixer. I love PG tones on my Spark. Would love to get these tones but run through my mixer and PA to give it that punch in volume. With headphones the Spark is awesome, but I don’t want to use headphones all the time.
It will work with any amp sim and DAW. I actually recorded and mixed an entire track using this and it works quite well. Nice low latency and great sound. Thank you for watching. Keep creating! 👊👍
Great video! 🙏 Can you put Bias fx in the iPad? I really want to buy this thing. What about garage band? Sorry. New to this. Remember working with Focusrite.
Nice demo, thanx. Can you use just as input to record and have an other audio device for the sound coming out of your speakers. For example a Mackie mixer?
It is possible to do that if you use something like Asio4all to route your audio. You could connect the output of the riff to an input on the mixer and then monitor it through the mixer that way.
That is all you’re recording with this. The amps and effects are from plugins or the app on iOS. If you record your guitar while using the plugin, you are only recording the direct signal and the plugin is an effect that you can change later or take off completely. You can use any plugin with it, you don’t have to use the bias FX software. If you want to remap the audio that you record through it then you can do that without the amp plugin on.
Nah. Positive Grid is one of those shady companies that manipulates available stock and deal deadlines. As soon as the numbers reach zero, they just refresh them. I noticed that when I was considering buying one of their Spark amps. The site would advertise the limited availability, then just start over every few hours when they "sold out."
It’s an audio interface so you’ll hear any processing that you do in the software. If you use bias FX amp sim then you’ll hear the guitar processed through that. You can also use this to listen to music through or watch videos through. Plus record and edit entire songs. If you aren’t familiar with audio interfaces, think of this like an external soundcard.
Not with the interface itself but if you download a recording program (DAW software) then you can record, save, edit, add even more FX, whatever you want.
@@AudioTechTVcan this be adapted to use on android tablets/phones, if so how. don't understand why they stopped it for this everything else uses android (I have the spark 40)
It's not even designed for a PC. It's an Apple toy. To use it on PC you have to download unstable software. And it uses a Micro USB. Was it designed 10 years ago? Pass.

Short, precise and informative 👏🏻
Glad you enjoyed the video. Thank you for watching and taking the time to comment. Keep creating! 👊👍
2 things I'm sad about, it doesn't use USB c and the lack of android connection 😢
Anker has wonderful adapters that will make usb scarcity no longer a problem
It was designed for Apple. I'm going to pass on it.
This thing is great! What’s the best way to hook up to a frfr? Do I need a 1/4 to 3.5mm stereo cable? Then plug into the aux on the frfr?
Sorry to bother you I’m new to all this but I’m finding it hard to set up just doesn’t sound good at all any ides thanks

Nice review/demo! I hadn't heard of this one before. I wonder if it would with Jamkazam? Worth checking out, for sure. Thanks.

It will work with an iPad and GarageBand. You can grab the bias FX app from the App Store.
@@AudioTechTV thanks so much ! 🙏🙏🙏

Wonder if it works with Youcisian, Rocksmith 2014 and or Rocksmith Plus.
What about the direct signal? Can you record that and re-amp later?
That is all you’re recording with this. The amps and effects are from plugins or the app on iOS. If you record your guitar while using the plugin, you are only recording the direct signal and the plugin is an effect that you can change later or take off completely. You can use any plugin with it, you don’t have to use the bias FX software. If you want to remap the audio that you record through it then you can do that without the amp plugin on.
I heard it works with phones too. Is that true?
Yes with iPhone or iPad, but not Android.
Nice Demo ! How did you managed to run your Bias FX 2 LE on your Ipad ?
It’s the Bias FX 2 app from the App Store. Thank you for watching keep creating! 👊👍
@@AudioTechTVjust asked the same question. Sorry. I have the answer now. 😊

So you mean like any company?!?. It’s the product and it’s functionality I am interested in.

Question, what you're listening through your headphones is the sound processed by bias fx? or just the direct sound of your guitar?
It’s an audio interface so you’ll hear any processing that you do in the software. If you use bias FX amp sim then you’ll hear the guitar processed through that.
You can also use this to listen to music through or watch videos through. Plus record and edit entire songs.
If you aren’t familiar with audio interfaces, think of this like an external soundcard.
Hi can you record and save recording?
Not with the interface itself but if you download a recording program (DAW software) then you can record, save, edit, add even more FX, whatever you want.
@@AudioTechTV thank you
Can you use Tonebridge with the riff thanks
Yes you can use it with any amp sim.
@@AudioTechTV that’s great thanks for the reply
Will the Riff work on my MSI Laptop ? or does it only work on an Ipad?
It will work on a laptop or desktop too. I actually created an entire song using only the riff on my PC.

Weird. I only use pc and got it to work super easy.
