Hi all, sorry if this is a repeat but my last post doesn't appear to have gone on the board. New to this so bare with me please.

Im trying to use my Arduino UNO with the Maxuino patch but I'm not getting a response from it. I have followed all the instructions on the Maxuino site (Firmata gets a response to the board) but I cannot get anything from maxuino (not even the flashing test LED). As far as I can tell I have moved all necessary files to the correct path (in the library folder currently as suggested by another post) but still nothing. I get the error:

Im using Max 7.0.5.... The instructions are using an older version. Can anyone offer any advice/suggestions please?

The strange thing is... When I click on the error message in the Max console of the missing file, it opens that sub patcher, so it is there!?

Ive never heard of it but I just watched a timed video on youtube... Looked impressive! But to use it does it involve more coding inside the arduino environment rather than in Max? Really I want to do the majority of my programming in Max I think, if I'm understanding it!

What exactly would you like to do? I use it for simple potentiometer feedbacks. I changed some lines in their arduino sketch and it works fine without a lot of coding in Max.

For this project I want to use some HC-SR04 Ultrasonic distance sensors to control parameters in a granular synth patch that I'm making in Max. For another project I want to build a controller that will interface to a sampler/sequencer patch using faders, latch pads and pots. If possible id rather do more programming within Max, just looking to get the data into Max in the first place! Seems simple for other people, I'm struggling!!
