Hello,

I don't have an Arduino board for anything at the moment. I'm using a Pololu Maestro to control a light show that is timed to music. Will the Arduino be able to perform a script that is timed? If so to what accuracy can it do this? I'm looking mostly at the Arduino Uno.

Thanks
Cade

Both of your questions depend on what is in the script.

At a guess the answers are YES and better than 1 millisecond.

I do recommend the Uno for starting out, as it's smaller, cheaper, and if you fry the MC you can pop it out and pop a new one in easily for a few bucks.
