Hello Nick, I don't have experience with Music Visualizer composition, sorry.
However, I see that you are using a deprecated Java Script patch in you composition (may be because the composition is very old?). My suggestion is to replace it with the new one which may be better tested with the current environment (unfortunately the new one is buggy, too). Also you are using the Interpolation patches in "loop"-mode. The problem with this is, that in edge cases the interpolation jumps from "1.000000001" to "0" giving you a wrong alpha value for your Billboard patch. Switch the Loop-mode to "none". best, Achim Breidenbach Boinx Software Ltd.
