Bias Head footswitch
-
Hey Positive Grid team,
Is there any timeframe on the release of the footswitch and/or videos of it in action?
I’m looking forward to it’s release!
Thanks,
Dan Bieranowski -
@danbieranowski I was wondering the same thing. Last I heard was about a month ago they were still working out bugd
-
We will spread it to local dealers around late October, please stay tuned!!
-
@felix As usual, you're the man Felix!
-
Any update on this? I know they were looking at an end of October release, but I haven't heard or seen anything.
-
@Felix any word on this?
-
@danbieranowski will speak to our sales team and get an answer back to you soon!!
-
@danbieranowski
BIAS Footswitch is shipping to distributors worldwide in November and should be in stores in December.
Please note: the delivery dates differ by region! -
@felix what will the pedal model be called? I want to make sure I don’t confuse it with the BT4.
-
@danbieranowski We just call it BIAS Footswitch!:metal_tone3:
-
@danbieranowski Unfortunately I heard nothing about a special BIAS Footswitch for the Head/Rack until now, so where are the benefits in comparison to using a standard MIDI-Footswitch?
-
@sascha-ballweg as of now all I know is it can recall 4 separate amps and it’s fully wireless.
-
@danbieranowski ah… sorted this more to the iOS apps than to the head. THX!
-
@sascha-ballweg Are you currently using a MIDI footswitch? If so, what are you using and how did you implement it?
-
@danbieranowski it's not wireless, you will need to connect it to BIAS Head/Rack with TRS cable.:sunglasses:
-
@sascha-ballweg We are now preparing some information for the BIAS Footswitch, will let you guys know soon.
BTW, BIAS Footswitch is a 4-button-aux-style footswitch, you can assign 4 amp presets from BIAS Head/Rack to it via TRS cable.(It's not wireless)
Have a look:

@felix Thanks for the info Felix! I see it's up for preorder on Sweetwater now, so I might be going ahead with the preorder purchase.
-
@danbieranowski Wow! That's a price-tag for a simple 4 channel footswitch :/
-
@sascha-ballweg Yeah, I considered going with a MIDI footswitch, but I like the idea of having the same company that supports the head also support the footswitch, in case I run into issues.
-
Hi all, the footswitch is now live and available through Sweetwater!
