Sonuus has introduced G2M – a Universal Guitar-to-MIDI Converter app for iOS.
According to the developer, Sonuus G2M delivers high-performance, low-latency, MIDI conversion for guitar and other musical instruments.
The G2M app gives you access to the same technology of the Sonuus hardware G2M:
- Any electric guitar can be used as a solo MIDI guitar: i.e., it’s universal.
- No guitar modifications or special pickups required.
- Robust note detection — minimises wrong notes.
- Velocity detection of notes, so your playing dynamics are translated into MIDI messages.
- Fast, accurate pitch-bend determination, or alternative chromatic mode.
- Very low latency & very fast tracking.
- Built-in, precise tuner.
Here’s a demo of Sonuus G2M in action:
To use the G2M, you can use the built-in microphone but you will get much better results by using an adapter that lets you connect your guitar directly to your iPhone, iPod or iPod Touch.
Sonuus G2M is available now for $1.99 in the App Store.

Anyone tested this one yet?
Just tired it. Not impressed at all. Very slow and unaccurate.
The new Polyphonic JamOrigin VST/AU performs as well as a Roland hex-pickup and its freely available in beta.
This led me to Shredder.
Would like to see a shootout between the sound-to-midi features of these two.
It is monophonic, so single notes for now, no chords. It will detect notes as low as the low E on a four string bass, but not sure about the connectivity between apps. Can i control another app through its own midi channels???
You can hear there’s quite a bit of latency going on in the demo… Why would they market it as very low latency app, when it’s clearly not? Though it’s only 2 bucks, so maybe it’s worth it?
