Hi, I’ve recently started using FMOD in my Unity game, and I’m very excited about the power that is possible with instead of stock Unity audio.  
However, after installing FMOD v 2.02 package in Unity 2020.3.14 (I think that version should work right?) I ran into a problem.

In my script, I want to trigger an event.  
I tried to expose an event like the script API example said.  
Like this: public FMODUnity.EventReference MyEvent;  
However, the full EventReference is not possible, only the older/obsolete form of “EventRef”.  
How do I get the new version to properly show up? Sorry, I know it’s a newbie question, but I’ve been stuck on this most of the day.

Hi,

Excited to have you with us!

In the FMOD Toolbar menu could I get a screenshot of your `About Integration`  
 ![image](https://canada1.discourse-cdn.com/flex036/uploads/fmod/original/2X/7/7eeca64a5b4c53d69f676f572f51b5fab0b1561f.png)

If you check the `StudioEventEmitter.cs` script on line `11` do you see `public EventReference EventReference;`

Thanks

Uh oh, very simple user error on my part.  
Sorry for the confusion!  
Here is what happened.  
I started looking at “Scripting Examples, Basic” but in version 2.0.0.  
Then I got the “obsolete” message in my code.  
So on the website I changed the code sample over to 2.0.2 (which is what I was already using but didn’t realize it).  
However, I kept trying to use the [FMODUnity.EventReference] style format! Which is not needed any more in 2.0.2. I can simply use “public FMODUnity.EventReference audioEvent;”.  
So it’s all fixed and working!  
Thank you!
