Good luck and please feel free to pm me if you have questions as I have been doing something very similar to what your considering for a couple of months now. The only other thing I have that comes close is an Axe FX Ultra that I just got. You can really get some great times out of the software. The stand-alones are coming along nicely but still need some work. All you would need are a pair of midi cable and the patience to program the Pod.īias Amp & FX are really great as plugins. If you get the Scarlet 2i4 it had midi in/out on the back. Instead use it as a midi controller for Bias. My recommendation is to not get rid of it. USB 2.0 is good enough for guitar playing and recording. Don't get caught up in thinking you need a thunderbolt interface. It houses a lot of features for a reasonable price. The box is bus powered which is super handy. I have the 2nd Gen Focusrite Scarlet 2i4 USB interface. You would need an external audio interface. I have a 500X that I plan to use for control and effects.You already have monitors and a decent computer. I've seen people using it successfully together with a Kemper, so I can't see why it shouldn't work with the bias. I asked a guy on youtube who said he had some issues and that it was because of the POD. Hi! I plan to order the bias head at the end of the month, and I wonder if you've tried using your HD500 as a midi controller for the rack. However, I appreciate the HD500 for the effects combined with the BIAS. recording 16 tracks all running positive grid bias and some compressors + eq + reverb, and 7 tracks that are in playback mode with bias + eq on 4 of them and eqing with reverb on the rest of them. I tried everything, using the pod'EQs, esxternal EQ (31 bands), but never got a real great simulated tone in addition, the memory is quickly overleaded. so im staying with my laptop thnx ive managed to find breaking point on the desktop. I even bought the Metal pack, hoping that I would find something decent. I know it is not the same technology nor the same price, but I worked for two years to find a real good tone with the Line 6. Those tones have nothing to do with the pod HD500 amps. I got great tones with minor adjustments.

I just bought the Bias rack and it sounds really awesome simply in full range studio monitors. This was before Bias desktop, but I think some of the points still apply since whatever you create in Bias desktop can be loaded into JamUp on an iOS device. I did a similar study a while back on Bias. Overall I'm very happy with the results from the HD500X. This setup seems pretty flexible and provides a lot of setup options to deal with different situations and needs. They're not as good as S-Gear, but they're certainly useful. Removing the cabinet resonance and using the vintage pre for voicings seemed to result in very nice tones from the HD500X.

I found by using the vintage pre directly in front of the blackface or other amps, and using the low and high-pass filters plus the gain controls helped create similar voicings in the HD500X. This avoids mud in the bass and fizz/ice pick in the high end, and keeps the distortion musical and responsive. Typically S-Gear amps roll off more bass and treble the more distorted the amp becomes. What I found was there's a lot of tone voicing in the drive, channel, bass, mid and treble shift switches. So I studied what Mike has done in S-Gear to make those wonderful tones. The setup was somewhat complicated (but I actually like that).īut, the HD500X is certainly convenient by itself too. I'm planning on a blog post on this as soon as I can get to it.
This is a fantastic sounding setup, and is quite easy to use.
So my setup is to use the HD500X as an audio interface and MIDI controller for MainStage and S-Gear, using some of the front of the amp effects from the HD700X into S-Gear, and using S-Gear's modulation, delay and reverb after the amp effects. Mike Scuffham has made an outstanding product that seems to be way ahead of the typical amp modelers. S-Gear does not model amps, it is a small collection of boutique amps that just happen to be implemented in the digital domain.
When I first got the HD500X, I spent some time trying to reproduce the wonderful tones I can get from S-Gear. I use MainStage with S-Gear to manage the tones, S-Gear is the digital amp, and other MainStage tracks contain the VIs for the TriplePlay. I got an HD500X for convenience, and because I have a Variax 700 Acoustic and a Variax 300 with a Fishman TriplePlay added.
