California-based digital audio equipment company Positive Grid has gone ahead and released a high-tech new guitar pedal that is designed to make it easier for guitar players who like to experiment and create their own tones to go about calling them up in the studio as well as while performing on stage.
Dubbed the BIAS Distortion Pro, this particular guitar pedal comes with 10 included tones but also allows users to make use of virtual pedal technologies contained within the companion BIAS Pedal software. The software, which can be operated on a PC or iOS device, can be used to generate a unique tone that can then be transferred to the pedal unit.
This guitar pedal is a great example of musical technology bridging the gap between tangible gadgetry and virtual software mechanisms.
