Im trying to get a script to work, but the problem is that in the output it only says 0, meaning it cant find the playbackloudness, can someone help me out please?

local RS = game:GetService('RunService')
local soundie = game.Workspace.Sound
local part = game.Workspace.Baseplate

while(wait())do
    if soundie.IsPlaying then
        print(soundie.PlaybackLoudness/1000)
        local randX = math.random(0,(soundie.PlaybackLoudness/1000))
        local randY = math.random(0,(soundie.PlaybackLoudness/1000))
        local randZ = math.random(0,(soundie.PlaybackLoudness/1000))

        part.Color = Color3.new(randX, randY, randZ)    
    end
end

this script if from another question (https://scriptinghelpers.org/questions/86786/how-do-i-change-the-brickcolor-based-on-playerbackloudness)

Sound.PlaybackLoudness can only be read from the client, not the server.

-- LocalScript in StarterPlayer.StarterPlayerScripts
local RS = game:GetService('RunService')
local soundie = game.Workspace.Sound
local part = game.Workspace.Baseplate

while true do
    if soundie.IsPlaying then
        local pLoudness = soundie.PlaybackLoudness
        print(pLoudness)
        local randX = math.random(0, pLoudness) / 100
        local randY = math.random(0, pLoudness) / 100
        local randZ = math.random(0, pLoudness) / 100

        part.Color = Color3.new(randX, randY, randZ)    
    end
    RS.RenderStepped:Wait()
end

All the 0's in the output were being read from the server, not the client. The server doesn't actually play the sound, it tells the clients to play the sound. The following script should work.

Also, depending on the sound, the baseplate will flash. The following code fixes the flashing by tweening the colors.

-- Again, LocalScript in StarterPlayer.StarterPlayerScripts
local RS = game:GetService('RunService')
local tweenService = game:GetService('TweenService')

local waitTime = 0.25
local easingStyle = Enum.EasingStyle.Linear
local easingDirection = Enum.EasingDirection.In

local colorTweenInfo = TweenInfo.new(waitTime, easingStyle, easingDirection, 0, false, 0)

local soundie = game.Workspace.Sound
local part = game.Workspace.Baseplate

local function getNewColor()
    local pLoudness = soundie.PlaybackLoudness
    print(pLoudness)
    local randX = math.random(0, pLoudness) / 100
    local randY = math.random(0, pLoudness) / 100
    local randZ = math.random(0, pLoudness) / 100

    local newColor = Color3.new(randX, randY, randZ)
    return newColor
end

local function createColorTween()
    local newColor = getNewColor()
    local tween = tweenService:Create(part, colorTweenInfo, {Color = newColor})

    return tween
end

while true do
    if soundie.IsPlaying then
        local tween = createColorTween()
        tween:Play()
        tween.Completed:Wait()
    end
end

Just be sure to warn your players about flashing lights.
