Avoid jump from one wiggle cycle to another
Hi, I’m using audio generated key frames to apply wiggle to and object rotation. The problem is that every time the audio stop the object jump back to the original rotation value. How can I avoid the jump between every wiggle cycle.
if(thisComp.layer(“Audio Amplitude”).effect(“Left Channel”)(“Slider”)>1)wiggle(1,10) else ???
thanks in advance.
if(thisComp.layer("Audio Amplitude").effect("Left Channel")("Slider")>1)wiggle(1,10) else ??? -

It’s tricky–you have to count the previous frames where your condition for wiggling was true and use that to calculate the 5th parameter (time) of the wiggle:
a = thisComp.layer("Audio Amplitude").effect("Left Channel")("Slider");
t = time;
f = 0;
while (t >= 0){
if (a.valueAtTime(t)>1) f++;
t -= thisComp.frameDuration;
}
wiggle(1,10,1,0.5,framesToTime(f))

Would be easier to apply the slider value to the wiggle amount
wiggle(1, thisComp.layer("Audio Amplitude").effect("Left Channel")("Slider")*10)The slider output will need the correct multiplier to get it in a sensible range.

Wow! I thought it will be something easier like a “hold” expression or something like that.
It works perfectly, thanks a lot Dan!
