Maxuino PWM Output Configuration

Hello this is my first post here so excuse me if I miss something. I am building a musical percussion array for my capstone project at my college. The goal will be to run 32 solenoids with PWM for intensity control via midi. I have seen that this has been accomplished before and seem to be making progress on my goal however I now find myself a little bit lost and that's because I'm not very familiar with MAX/MSP, Firmata and Maxuino.

So far, I have been able to get Maxuino to communicate with my Arduino UNO and have successfully controlled one solenoid as a test with PWM in the helper file. I don't know how to route midi to that particular instance. I checked out the examples and see that MAX is getting my midi signal but the console says "js: js: no function /11/digOut [maxuino.js]".

How do I change the pin mode to PWM and save it that way? (in this case for pin 11)

I have also tried to test the MaxforLive plugin but Ableton keeps telling me wrong version no matter what version of MAX I install. I would prefer to use it in Ableton but thus far I can't seem to test it so for now I'd prefer to simply route it via virtual midi.

Any input would be greatly appreciated. This project is going to be pretty impressive and I hope to share my progress with you all. Thanks! =)

Hi there,

I'm having the exact same problem. My console logs "js: js: no function /##/digOut [maxuino.js]".when I send a midi note...

Did you find a solution to this one?
