Positive Grid releases BIAS Amp Standalone

With its Amp Match technology and bundled HD amp models, Positive Grid's BIAS Amp plugin has won acclaim from guitarists the world over, and the company has now released the amp modeller as a standalone app for Mac and PC.

So, that means no need to load up your DAW to design amps or access the ToneCloud, but the software does include MIDI and automation support for real-time control over amp parameters.

BIAS Amp Standalone is available now in Standard ($99) and Pro ($199) incarnations, and as a free update for BIAS Amp plugin users.

Mike is Editor-in-Chief of GuitarWorld.com, in addition to being an offset fiend and recovering pedal addict. He has a master's degree in journalism, and has spent the past decade writing and editing for guitar publications including MusicRadar, Total Guitar and Guitarist, as well as a decade-and-a-half performing in bands of variable genre (and quality). In his free time, you'll find him making progressive instrumental rock under the nom de plume Maebe.
