I'm having some trouble with serial maybe someone knows of a better patch/sketch to use?

it works great when i send individual bangs to individual outputs/leds they all work fine.But when i send 8 individual bangs to 8 individual outputs all at the exact same time. The arduino drops information and at times only 2 or 3 leds will come on.

when i use 115200 baud it works quite well ( with a few hickups)

someone on another forum said that packets are essentially skipped because the Sketch dose not wait for all to arrive and that the sketch needs to be modified.

i have been using this tutorial below :

when i use 9600 baud ,its really bad.

I used to work with maxuino but i heard on this forum that it uses javascript and is allot slower than the serial object. I do hope to find a method that is low latency also. thanks for any help.

I have gone back to using maxuino for now.

If anyone reading this finds a nice reliable low latency serial patch + sketch for communicating max and an arduino please post here. thanks : )

Not sure if it does serial-output 'out-of-the-box' though.
