Sounds like it maybe latency Marc and any guitar synth has some latency. I get up to 15ms on bass notes on my Gi-20 with the older MkII pickup. It's usable and, for me as I use it for recording and creating sound-scapes so can edit afterwards, not an issue. I have however heard of people who have found the latency on their set-ups to be unusable.
Personally I'd give it time and be prepared to adapt to it rather then expecting it to adapt to you. I'm not being facetious here - playing a guitar synth just isn't the same as playing a guitar in my experience and may require some rethinking of what you do, how and why  . -------------------- Get your music professionally mastered by anl AES registered Mastering Engineer.

I friend of mine bought a pickup like this and connected to a Roland syntersizer effects box (for synth, not guitar) but there was latency and he could only play one tone at a time.
So there were really some limitations there. -------------------- My bands homepage

QUOTE (Marc_Maiden @ Jan 30 2009, 03:32 PM)  it is an expensive pedal, and i just want to get the most out of it, and if it doesnt work well for me, im going to return it It's not about synth/pedal imo, I believe you need to adapt your playing a bit as Tony said, each note most be executed very smoothly in order to be recognized as midi, no buzzing, no ghost notes, string noise etc, specially if you're playing quickly/faster as you mentioned. -------------------- Youtube

Also some sounds have a very different ADSR envelope to a guitar. For some sounds it can take a long time for the sound to swell up and develop. You pretty much have think about how a particular sound develops and then match your playing.
