explain transistor biasing

[letsgocoyote]

I dont quite understand why transistors need to be bias, or how it works, and what different methods there are.

i do understand that theres some type sof bias, like on a LPB1/2 that is a voltage divider
what is the type of biasing on an Electra distortion, and how does it work?

Go read "How it works" at GEO.
