You sir, ARE A GENIUS! That actually worked, I renamed the comp pushing backspace first and it worked!
When I pick-whipped it actually created the expression all in one line, rather than it being spaced out with enters like it was (that’s why I couldn’t see it all in one line)….

Thanks again!

I read through that post and I dont know if I understood the line break correctly…
But what I did is created new nulls, renamed them but pushed backspace first then entered a name. Tried re-doing the expression and still gave me the same error.

I even created a null inside the same comp and added the hue/saturation effect onto the null and tried linking that effect to another layer in that same comp but still the same error… =/

I have tried something like this before with flapping objects and I did not want them to flap exactly at the same time. What I did was I just moved one set of key frames over a few frames so that they did not land on the same spots at the exact time. Now they would still MOVE at the same rate/speed but one would either be more ahead or behind the other.

If you want them to randomly change rate/speed, so that sometimes the left is faster than the right or the right faster than left at times that might be a more tricky to do IMO.
I assume since your using a circle path to have the Nulls rotate around there should be a few points in the path. Maybe turning a few keyframes into easy ease? ease in or maybe out so that the rate is slower/faster on some parts of the circle vs others?

Hope this helps.

Thanks for that information! This does look like something that could do this for me.
Unfortunately I do not have access to Mocha Pro, so still looking for other options available to me.
But this does make me want to get mocha pro!
