Check out this new product if you’ve always wanted to program MIDI with your guitar.

From the Sonuus website:

The G2M™ is a simple-to-use, highly effective, guitar-to-MIDI converter. It is “Universal” because it doesn’t need a special pick-up mounted on your guitar, but instead simply connects to your guitar like any other effects pedal or tuner.

Designed to give accurate triggering, with low-latency, it is a true plug-and-play solution for monophonic MIDI guitar. It can be used to sequence bass lines and guitar solos add an edge to your live performances — it opens up many creative possibilities.

• Robust note detection — minimises wrong notes.
• Accurate pitch-bend determination.
• Low latency.
• Built-in tuner for standard guitar tuning.
