Hi all, I'm new to Max, so I'm sure the solution is something straightforward. I also started out with one problem but have now developed a second. Here is the project file and audio clip I'm using:

https://github.com/ender40003/Thunderstorm-2

My original problem: based off an audio file, I want to trigger lights to flash randomly when the amplitude is loud enough (i.e. lightning and thunder). I got the first one working (the left-most), but when I added other random generators, they just sit at 0 the whole time even though the triggers are activated.

My new problem: after saving the project and coming back to it the next day, now none of the random generators trigger, even the first one.

I'm hoping to have this up and running by next weekend, so I would greatly appreciate any help! Thanks in advance.

I think I solved my own problem... it worked when I clicked on the "2" message leading into random. I then just took that out and used "random 2" and now it lights up.
