Previously unreleased footage of Animals As Leaders' Tosin Abasi talking about tone, recording, and how he uses BIAS Amp in the studio. Learn more: www.positivegri...
It's interesting how lots of people who play intense music sometimes can be so chill and soothing voiced when talking. Jp, tosin, and MAB are examples to me of people with soothing voices in a lot of their videos. Music someone likes doesn't always effect how someone will act. I like many genres of music myself except pop or country really. I have leanred lots from watching music I don't like being played in music school though.
Yes I believe he did too. More instrumental rock/metal bands have came out and got more attention after Animals as Leaders got big. It's crazy cool to know that was one of the first AAL fans back when they had their first album for free to gain more fans (not bragging to say im the best or anything like that). That album opened my mind to more jazzy metal and fusiony stuff and got me to get an 8 string anf I'm glad I did because it's not easy to find good bass players sometimes so why not be your own somwtimes. Also I like some djent so... Yeah.
Hi! I Just bought this amazing piece of software (the standalone version) and I wandered: what is the best deviceto use in the audio settings? (Asio? Direct Sound? Other? I assume that there are other devices that can be used^^) Thanks guys your work is awesome!
hey guys at bias. I have a question. I use bias for band practice so I take the output from my interface, and run it to my power amp and then to my cab. The sounds is really bassy and muddy and sounds unclear. And recommendations on how to fix ?
Hey PG, so he's using the Bias Head, but what is he running through for speakers? And just to be clear, I can just take this head and plug straight direct into a PA, or use a cab?
+Ty Carpenter I'll have to double-check with our media production dudes but I believe he is going direct from the Head into his audio interface>laptop.
bias looks killer - even just the software gets good reviews - what do you do go straight to PA live if you only have the software ? you have to bring the mac - which may be there anyway of there is anything being piped in from protools......hmmmmm nice
an 8 strings player that actually uses all the 8 strings in a creative way?!!
10/10
+A bowl of Miso soup Dude, he is THE 8 strings player...anyone else sounds like Lil Wayne in comparison
Kinda like mike giannelli but las thing I saw from him was played on a 9 strings :)
But tosin blow him away
+A bowl of Miso soup there is actually a 9 string standing in the background :DD
+Umberto D'Ovidio Javier Reyes is actually pretty good too :) His material is awesome (Mestis)
Rob Scallon's song Anchor is on 8 string and it's really interesting. I would say he takes a sort of slap style in it as well
I could watch Tosin play for days, it's so calming to watch him

Great person / great guitar player / great sound
I do not really like his music, but I love how he just started a completly new chapter to electric guitar

1:47 9 STRINGS!!
I think this is one of the best tones I've heard from Tosin in a demo. I'm on my laptop though so it's skewed
Beast
1:46 Tosin playing an RG9 wow that sounds promising ;) Please make Bias available on Android please
Android couldn't handle it. The app would probably crash before it loaded up lol
1:46 Tosin Abasi home???
can be used as an multieffect with my real mesa dual rectifier? I need just the effects and pedal of this awsome app
+Eleno Molinas Yes definitely. In the front via a reamp box is an excellent choice.
I have the mobile app jam up pro and I love it I wish I had space in computer to download Bias
You can get bias on your phone. You can customise the amp and than use it in Jamup
Brendon stacey
really i thought it was only for laptop and ipads ?! they must have changed it thats great news!
Sebastian Tinajero nah it's always been available on iPhone. Bias fx is the one you need an iPad for
Brandon oh yeah i meant Bias Fx :)
I wan't to try one badly !
is there a patch/preset on the tone cloud for this exact tone that he is using?
+Clay Storey Not sure if exactly what he used here but Tosin has crafted 5 killer tones for us and shared them on our Tonecloud (in Artist section)
Hi! I Just bought this amazing piece of software (the standalone version) and I wandered: what is the best deviceto use in the audio settings? (Asio? Direct Sound? Other? I assume that there are other devices that can be used^^)
Thanks guys your work is awesome!
+El Alchymist devices with an ASIO driver work great, I would recommend that!
Can we know what "patches" he used for the tones? Both clean and distorted?
+Kevin Duver Surfing the Bias Fx tonecloud you can find some of his patches:)
+Kevin Duver Here you go: Tosin Clean - Tosin Clean Lead - Tosin Mid - Tosin Lead - Tosin High Gain
Where can I get Tosin's amp patches or presets when I get a Bias?
Right on our Tonecloud, right in the software!
Beautiful
Is he still using an Axe FX in his live rig?
can you load patches of of bias fx strait into the amp, and why get the amp if you got the software? is there a perforance boost in sound?

Positive Grid Thanks guys! Yeah, please let me know.
But what about that tuner though?
Did anyone else spot the 9 string?
2:34 song???
Air Chrysalis
Track at 2:34? Off JOM?
Yup, everything he plays is from air chrysalis, its from joy of motion
his guitar is bigger than mine :(
When 8 string it´s not enough, you can have an 9 strings on the background
jajajjajjaa
jajajjajjaa
Song at 4:05?
The whole video he is playing "Air Chrysalis" from The Joy Of Motion
That laugh @ 4:42. Pure evil.

+Scott Pickel Yes, you can go straight to the PA. :-)
He's biased.
