A bit disappointing.
I bought the Sonuus i2M when I was looking around for an analog to midi converter or interface for guitar without having to go down the route of buying a midi guitar and the Sonuus was suggested by many people online. I bought it expecting a device that would allow me to play single guitar notes (aka not polyphonic/chords) and have them converted to a midi signal which would be broadcast with close to 0 latency through my midi instrument. What actually happens is a bit disappointing.
Not being able to play chords is fine for a 100 euro midi converter but to not even be able to play single notes at a moderate pace without the Sonnus losing track is disappointing. This is alongside the fact that you have to have to set up the device beforehand with a series of confusing button-holds. the logo turns green to indicate one setting, orange for another and it is quite a confusing learning curve right out of the box, especially for something with such a specific intended purpose.
Also the device has trouble with pickups that might not be 'hot' enough or that might be too hot. It seems there might be a sweet spot for the device to work properly but across all the guitars and times I tried to use it, I couldn't find it.
