thanks for the response. i was actually able to figure it out by the code alone, but your method is clearly easier and i really appreciate your help.

thanks, dan. i think this should work. i now see that need for the “L” to reference the information. makes sense.

Ok, now I have sort of the opposite or inverse question.

What if I want the layer, when it’s born, to jump to the audio value (say in scale) but then not retreat down. Maybe the jump is 2 frames and then it just lives at that height.

[Bert Brown]

Whoa, thanks Dan! You rock and roll.

I’m trying to break down and understand what you did here (because i wouldn’t be learning by just copying, would I?) and I understand, for the most part, what’s going on, but I’m unsure of what “thisComp.frameDuration” is representing. ???

oh and put “time” in the Value/Offset/Random Max expression field.

this is a quick fix, but i’m really looking forward to what the real solution is
