Hi,  
I know sound recognition is a complicated task, but is there some basic feature in Fmod that can do this at some basic level? with AI maybe? all I nee is for a certain sound like a short whistle of some rhythm, for instance, to be recognized. is that possible?

FMOD is designed for playback and does not have anything that could be utilized for sound recognition. This kind of feature will require you to find a proprietary solution.
