Good god I love it

I can't believe I still had my old 1st gen iRig. I got the ultimate license for $31 off of the website, there was a sale haha. It's actually still going right now!
I'm a metal head.. I'm a tone chaser.. I am impressed.. also I don't know the quality of the 1st gen iRig would work, but I tried it this morning and I haven't stopped, and I got a pair of semi open back headphones.. I love Djent.. deathcore.. hardcore.. so I go for some specific tones. The fact that I found anything heavy enough to mimic Meshuggah or even THALL tones without any mud.. again very impressed 🙏🙏.

Update Aug 23, 2020

Been using this on my iPad with a MeloAudio floorboard/MIDI controller, and EXP-100 expression pedal of same brand, and it works amazingly. It's of that I went searching how to get that working and the truth was even those in pros studios didn't know how to control it. There is full a functioning midi brain in there. All I did was google how to understand midi controls. BAM. Been using the expression pedal for the WAH and the Whammy knock off pitch shifter. Love it all! On top of that I have multiple rigs on different channels. I'm still making new sound channels I have C and D left on page 2 right now.. so that's 6 channels/setups/rigs/ with multiple amps in each one. I still haven't upgraded to Bias FX mobile 2. No need to.

No longer working as of ipados 14

Since updating, the app simply tries to load and crashes seconds into any attempt to open. The site says this is a discontinued product, and I've found nothing online about this issue, so this leads me to believe there is no plan to resolve this. I used the app every day prior. I've been using fx 2 since, but only because of this. While I enjoy the app more overall, the fact that I purchased an ultimate license, all expansions, etc. for 1 only to be expected to pay for the vast majority of it again in 2 even though they're the same pedals and amps is ridiculous. Now it seems the legacy product won't be supported even to the degree of making sure it functions. This is the best guitar software of its kind, period. But it's insulting to have to pay for the same things twice, just because, with no regard for the fact that I had purchased all I could from them to begin with. Now, it seems like the fact that I was a loyal customer prior to this has been completely disregarded. If this all shakes out like it appears to be, this may be the most disappointed I've ever been in a purchase, period, not just app/software wise.

BiasFX, Bias Amp, and Bias Pedal, just do it!

I am really enjoying this troika of tonal fun! It takes a little work to tweak each piece to fit your tastes but I have found the end result well worth a little effort. The X Drummer tie in is icing on the cake (great practice setup). I enjoy producing via a 12" iPad Pro more then a laptop these days, and this makes for the best of the modeling apps I have used. Add Amp and Pedal and it is off to the amusement park!

There is a surprising amount of touch sensitivity and breakup in the new version. You can easily dial in a gritty overdriven tone that cleans up as roll back the volume a lighten your attack. I hope the developers keep pushing the limits of this app, it is my go to for tone when recording via iOS.
