I've build a patch that plays white noise for a specific amount of time, but when I first open the patch it automatically starts outputting white noise until I click the toggle twice that turns the noise on and off (basically reseting it) i've "saved as" when it was reset but it still loads the same. The top of the patch is basically a bang timer to time intervals between the noise being on or off, when the inlet is banged it turns the noise on and then theres a 3900ms delay until the second bang turns it off. What i need is a way for the noise to be off by default when i load the patch

heres a pic of the patch, the toggle that turns the noise on or off (the one i have to reset when i open the patch) is the one with my mouse by it.

Utter brilliance, thanks

Its from the pot into the frying pan for me!

Now my problem is this; there is a toggle that I need to be active (with the cross in it) when I initially load my patch. I've "saved as" with the toggle active but it doesn't save. And the problem is the play button i've made wont work unless the toggle is active but when I activate the toggle it has to play through the whole sequence of sound. I Ideally i need something that will keep that toggle activated continuously. Any ideas would be great

here is a pic of the patch and the toggle in question has my mouse on it.
