I recently learned about Arduino by watching a few videos on youtube that had a automated drumset using servo arms. I thought it was a neat idea and wanted to give it a shot. I purchased the Uno starter kit and watched a few tutorials, specifically this one by Beat Lab using Ableton -
Everything seems to be working ok accept I am have one issue; I have one servo working perfectly and can have two running if they are doing the exact same thing on the same channel. But I want the servos to be able to play different beats and it seems like the servos wont work at all on a separate channel. If I remove the first channel then they will work just fine on the second.
Does anyone know if the Uno or possibly Ableton has any limitations that would prevent me from using 2 channels at the same time? Is there additions to the hardware that I may need? So far I've only tried connecting to the chip using the digital 9 and 10 slot for testing.
I don't play music (other than on the radio) so I can't help. But your title gives no idea of what you need help with. If you edit your Original Post you can change it. It seems (to ignorant me) as if something like "help with Ableton drum servos" might be more meaningful.

Will do, thanks for the tip
Ableton has a site with tutorials. It looks like a MIDI sequencer so find out how to get more than one track playing.
That is a specialized product, they are the people to ask, I know I would!
Since that is just running Firmata on the Arduino end you have no control over what's going on in the Arduino.
You really need someone who understands Firmata and the Ableton Connection Kit and they're both a bit too specialised for this forum. I suggest you hit "Report to moderator" in your original post and ask for it to be moved to the "Interfacing w/Software on the Computer" forum. You're more likely to find people who know what you're talking about down there.
