Logo bouncing on music Question

[ElOnce]

Hi all,
I used this youtube tutorial to make a bouncing logo.... my second attempt to make something in AE.
Now, I would like to start with a small object reacting/bouncing to the beat... and later when the real beat starts I want another object begin to bounce.

In the video the guy uses the expression picklet (?) tool to connect with the slider of the audio amplitude (253 seconds into the video):

I did that with both objects I want to animate and off course the two start bouncing right away.

How can I move the start time of bouncing object two????

The easiest would be to cut the layer (CTRL+SHIFT+D on PC) of the 2nd object at the point where it should start to bounce and just connect this part to the slider keyframes.

You could modulate the amplitude of the effect by adding a custom slider expression control and using this code bit:

mAud=layer("XYZ").effect("Both Channels")("Slider");

mAmp=thisLayer.effect("Amplitude")("Slider");

mAmp*mAud

Just make sure you use sensible values.
