so i got these instructions from support i thought id share in case theyre of use to someone,they havent helped me but here they are. Hi Petra,

If you run into issues when using BIAS FX 2 / BIAS Amp 2, please try the steps below:

1). Rename the BIAS_FX2 / BIAS Amp 2 folder in Documents/PositiveGrid to "BIAS_FX2 backup" / "BIAS_Amp2 backup"

2). Delete BIAS FX2.settings at:

Windows

%APPDATA%\PositiveGrid\BIAS FX2.settings

%APPDATA%\PositiveGrid\BIAS Amp2.settings

APPDATA might be a hidden folder on your PC, please refer to the link below:

3). Go to Windows Setting -> Sound, and make sure both Output and Input devices are selected. Ideally they should be assigned to your audio interface, but you can also use the computer's built-in sound card. Also, in Windows Sound Control Panel, please go to Properties -> Advance page for each device, and check everything's using the same buffer size and sample rate.

4). Make sure all cloud-based services (Google Drive, One Drive, etc) are disabled for Documents folder & Desktop on your PC.

5). Restart your PC and launch BIAS FX 2 again.

However, please notice that BIAS Amp 2 does not officially support Bitwig Studio

Please let us know how it works. Thank you very much.

Thank you for your continued patience and support, please feel free to contact me should you have further questions. Stay well and be safe.

Best regards, all that achieved for me was the same results bias amp not showing up in the vst3 folders for reaper or ableton showing up in bitwig but not loading despite fx2 running happily.I miss amp and not being able to tweak my ac30s.
