Tone Match re-creates real-world pedal tones





Use BIAS' Tone Match technology to capture the character of any distortion pedal as a preset that you can use onstage or in the studio. All you need is a recording of distortion tone you're trying to re-create. Set up a basic preset in the BIAS Pedal software or App, tell it to match it to the recorded guitar tone, and it'll tweak the sound of the BIAS Distortion pedal to sound like the target pedal. Save it to a preset slot on the BIAS Distortion pedal, and you've got that tone stored and ready to go.





Design your own custom distortion, overdrive, and fuzz effects





Use the included BIAS Pedal software to create your own custom distortion pedal models, then load them into the BIAS Distortion pedal via Bluetooth or USB. You control the type of virtual transistors used, the style and placement of EQ, and much more. Keep your new secret sonic weapon to yourself, or upload it to ToneCloud for players worldwide to enjoy.





Seamlessly integrates with BIAS Pedal software and app





As part of the BIAS ecosystem, BIAS Distortion is designed to be an extension of the acclaimed BIAS Pedal software (included). Use the software to create your own custom pedal models, then load them into BIAS Distortion's 20 preset slots. Guitarists at Sweetwater love how easy it is to get tweaky with the software, then load your tones into the pedal for performance. BIAS Distortion connects to your computer via USB, and connects to your iPad via Bluetooth.
