        great. thanks very much. I have never used that Actor before! It provides exactly the kind of one-hit timed switch that I'm looking for. And it's a very simple solution too, which i like :-)

          Maybe I am wrong, but it seems to me you want to use the either the Sound Level Watcher or the Sound Frequency bands actors, so that you can see the output readings.

          Once you have these reading you can use a Comparator to check if the value is Greater Than a threshold value.
          That gets you what you asked for, I believe.

          I also added using my Value Decay actor as a way to slow the decay. It may provide an extra level of control for you.

          But really the Comparator will give you the within range (above/below a threshold) that you asked for.

            thanks! at the moment the quick-and-dirty way with the Pulse Value actor suits my way of working, but when i want a more precise audio response this will be useful.

              @notdoc this is exactly the actor I'm looking for ,too. But I don't understand, how to change the type of property from "float" to "boolean" - I can't find no tutorials for this - Could You give me a tip ? _best wishes wolfgang

                @wolle-west i think you might be asking @DusX ? if it is about the example in the pic above

                  @notdoc - sorry - i hope that's not a misunderstanding - I thought the idea with the Pulse Values actor  came from You - like in the pic below - because this actor in my preset has only the type float for value 1 and 2

                    @wolle-west ah yes sorry. i understand! if you attach any actor that spits out boolean, then it will change.

                         Take note of Inputs and Outputs that are a Green Color. These inputs/outputs can change to match the type of the IO being attached.

                        example: the Javascript actor can mutate its inputs to Float, Integer, Text, boolean (all numeric and text options). Each will be seen with a green ball until the type is set/connected.

                            This might be oversimplifying it but...

                            You have a trigger going to either a "toggle actor" or an on/off input; is there any reason why you can't have a secondary connection going out of the same trigger that leads to a "trigger delay" that you at for a really short time period (0.1seconds or something) that will then flip the same switch.

                            That way you have your brief toggle all ready to go.

                            Just make sure the value's "init." State is set to "off" so that you don't get any weird behaviour.

                              @thatmattrogers that would also do it. Thanks for that. There are multivarious means for exuviating a feline in Isadora, but I do like the single-actor simplicity of the 'Pulse Values' solution proposed by @jfg
