Here's a slightly modified version of your script that may help clarify: buff=1 setblack load 1,"tutorial:pictures/drumkid.1" load 2,"tutorial:pictures/drumkid.2" module "smus" smus "loadscore",1,"tutorial:music/bach.smus" smus "loadinst",1,1,"tutorial:instruments" smus buf,"findbuff","voicea" rem 60=mid"C", 1=note is not heard smus "setsigs",buf,74,1 fade smus "startscore",1,1,4 dim data[4],4 /top: smus "waitsig",data display buff if data[2]=100: rem signals end of score pause 35 goto atend endif buff=buff+1 if buff=3:buff=1:endif goto top /atend: fade out,4 end I substituted pictures from the Tutorial disk, so I know this script works, and you should be able to reproduce the same results. In this example, I didn't use middle-C because the example score didn't contain any middle-C's, and I extended the "end of score" signal out a little more. What you'll notice if you run it as is, is every time a certain note hits, you'll get a display flip. If you change the soundflag parameter to a 0, you'll get the exact same display results, but you won't hear the triggering note's sound. The idea here, is you can take an existing score, and add notes that are only to be used as triggers, using a new note that doesn't otherwise appear in the score. With soundflag set to 0, the note will not make a noise, and will only cause the "waitsig" command to stop waiting and presumably the display effect to occur in sync. If you are having other specific problems, see if you can reproduce them using images and music on the Tutorial disk, so that I can see exactly what you are seeing. Keith
