had a look at your pd patch. regarding the [slipdec] thing: inside your arduino code, you're printing your data with serialPrint(), but [slipdec] expects slip packages. so that's probably the reason it complains. It keeps accumulating bytes and therefore exceeds the maximum length.
My patch is actually meant to be a kind of router, building a bridge between the arduino and other programs (most of which can deal easier with OSC via UDP than via Serial). In your case, you can get rid of the whole local host thing and just directly send the osc messages via [slipenc] to [comport]. Just grab the things out of my patch you actually need and get rid of the rest - or use it in another window/instance. I attached an example how to use raw SLIP packages. Just modify it to your needs and see if it works better (it's definitely faster). 'index' would be your fader number and 'value' is the value. So for every fader change you just have to send a list of two bytes (index + value) to [slipenc] and from there to [comport] > Gesendet: Freitag, 17.
