(Personally, I thought the PA system sounded pretty awesome.) I have also taken this elsewhere, where I have plugged it into a Fender Passport 300 Watt PA System. I am using a Focusrite Clarett 2PRE for an audio interface, that is connected to a pair of studio monitors (JBL 305LSR's if you are curious) in my home, along with a pair of headphones. You do need to re-auth when you update the software. I have no idea if they have any sort of preventions keeping you from using it on multiple machines. When you download the software, you don't get a license key, you activate it with your login id. I haven't tried to use it on a second computer at this point, you could contact the vendor and as about it. I am running BIAS FX Pro on a Macbook Pro. However you can definitely record your guitar with this setup as well if you do feel like it.įeel free to ask any more questions if you'd like. I don't really record much, I just basically use the computer as my amp. I then plug my headphones into the interface as well, and I can hear everything as I'm playing. Myself, I set the interface as the both the input and output device on my computer. However if you're interested in just plugging in your guitar and practicing on your computer, it would be perfect.Īnd absolutely you can play in real time. The limitation of it is that it doesn't have many inputs on it. The Scarlett Solo, for an affordable interface has excellent gain control to prevent these kinds of things. I have some guitars with very high output pickups and was having problems with my previous interface (iRig HD) with clipping and distortion.

Myself, I use a Focusrite Scarlett Solo for my interface. Then from there, if you want, you could demo Bias AMP and see if that's something you wanted to purchase. Then if you're finding you want more, you can update to Bias FX professional which adds more amps and effects, and a few other features.

You can also download other pedalboards that other people have created from their Tonecloud service. It comes with plenty of Amps and effects to get started with. I'd probably recommend basic Bias FX first.
