I would like to get this information from my EventInstance programatically:

[https://www.fmod.com/resources/documentation-studio?page=glossary.html#tempo-marker](https://www.fmod.com/resources/documentation-studio?page=glossary.html#tempo-marker)

Is this possible?

Hi Tanner,

Yes this is possible by using callbacks to grab the TIMELINE\_BEAT.

[https://www.fmod.com/resources/documentation-api?page=content/generated/FMOD\_STUDIO\_EVENT\_CALLBACK.html#/](https://www.fmod.com/resources/documentation-api?page=content/generated/FMOD_STUDIO_EVENT_CALLBACK.html#/)

[https://www.fmod.com/resources/documentation-api?page=content/generated/FMOD\_STUDIO\_EVENT\_CALLBACK\_TYPE.html](https://www.fmod.com/resources/documentation-api?page=content/generated/FMOD_STUDIO_EVENT_CALLBACK_TYPE.html)

You can see the “music\_callbacks” example in the API examples project.

Thanks,  
Richard

Thanks! That was useful. TIMELINE\_BEAT\_PROPERTIES was the trick.
