The noise was registering about 20 db below the guitar/amp levels on the master fader meter, which is just insane. Like "your amp is on fire" levels of noise. The gate widgets in the FX chain were really strangling the sustain and sensitivity of what I was trying to do and so I turned them off. I loaded it into a stereo track because I was using stereo chorus, etc.

One thing I've noticed is that if I load the plugin to a stereo track in ProTools (v11.2.2, 64 bit Windows) the noise levels go up to the point of this product being unusable. I've been fooling around with this for a few days. It's not much but if the noise is too much at least it's an option. I've noticed today that you can tweak the distortion knob in the preamp section which will reduce the noise dramatically to a manageable level without affecting the tone in any way that I can tell anyway. It feels like Bias Amp is trying to "emulate" the noise you get when using high gain equipment but it's over doing it. Amplitude also has a built in gate but it's not really required since there is so little noise that it isn't an issue even on the high gain/metal amps. I'm therefore trying to use Bias Amp without the gate if possible. Yes that's my question, does everyone else use the noise gate? As I mentioned I find the gate a bit janky when the gate opens and closes, it's not the best experience in my opinion due to the volume of the noise. When you're using a hi-gain amp, noise gates are a must. Many said in Input You do have the Noise Gate off in that picture. I have no CPU issues or input lag that others experience and the tones are superb.Īny help and advise would be greatly appreciated.

Other than the noise I can't praise this software enough. Cables are all decent quality and recently purchased. Focusrite Scarlett 2i2 with the latest ASIO drivers.

Or am I wrong?Īre these levels of noise to be expected? Do others just use the noise gate and don't worry about the noise level? Or am I doing something wrong?įor reference I'm running Windows 10 on a fairly well specced machine fully updated. I can understand a bit of noise either genuine from my signal chain or synthetic from the software but this all seems way too much for me. Some presets have more than double that shown in this screen shot and are overwhelming without using the noise gate.


Using any of the clean/blues presets are all fine however and have zero noise (proving my interface and cables are fine?) the gainer the preset, crunch > hi gain > metal > insane the more noise I get. OFC with the noise gate on the noise totally clears up but I find that a bit distracting sometimes when playing/recording. If I have the volume pot fully open the noise seen here roughly doubles.

no gain from my guitar at all to try to produce a "base level" of noise. I'm resting my fingers on the strings to mute them. My guitar (Tele with humbuckers) is plugged in but the volume pot is totally off. I've read online and ofc there's a multitude of things that can cause noise but I feel like Bias Amp 2 is adding a lot of noise and I wonder if this is normal for other uses?Īs you can see from the screen shot this is the noise level using the "British Rock 50 v2" preset downloaded from ToneCloud and untouched by me. I'm pretty new to Bias Amp 2 and although I find the tones amazing I'm a bit confused about the noise levels.
