Im in the process of making a lamp that has three LEDs. Red, Green, and Blue each attached to a 10k Pot to adjust their brightness. I want it to have a switch that makes it go from being simply on to flashing to the beat of music. I was able to accomplish this by combining these two instructables a few nights ago but the one that makes it flash to the beat didnt work by the morning.

( I modified them a bit to work together )
Through my research I found this sight and audioguru's help on someones similar project. He recommended this schematic to the previous person wondering why the TIP31 would not work. (it works for a very small amount of time)

I have it all together but am about to run to radio shack to buy the 10 ohm resistor. Does anyone have any input on this project? maybe you think it wont work and could give me input on how to fix it up a bit. Its crucial that the color changes by the POTs but I really want to include this "beat light effect" on a switch.
