Hi!
I don't want to insist... but a task like this would be much easier
with the http://www.arduino.cc/playground/Code/SimpleMessageSystem
than with something not-as-flexible like Pduino.

I agree to that.
We did something similar a while ago, with realys, shift-registers and 13 solenoids.
It was fairly easy to make one firmware for pd communication with SMS as well as shifting code to drive the relays.
More complex passages showed some timing fluctuation, but overall timing was pretty good.
Polyphony was kept at a maximum of 4, above that, things became more unstable.
The on's and off's for the relays were sent from pd without any problem
(there was no need to move the "note off's" into the arduino code).
There's some video of it, though not really very good footage.
Video and audio are out of sync etc...but it gives an idea.
In case you're interested, see www.timvets.net/projects/erkiandtim/poltergeist
We obviously were more inclined to drink beer than to shoot film that night...;)

i certainly will have a look at SMS as well... 
thank you for mentioning it.
