Feature wish: parameterize effect GUI buttons

FMOD Studio
1

I wish we could test our sound settings for a 100+ sound events easier.
In our case we spawn 50+ sounds in the game. Every event uses the FMOD SPATIALIZER.
I like to tweak the distance attenuation curve or control the BYPASS of an effect.

As I understand it is not possible right now. I see no automation right-click option fopr all sorts of buttons.

It is actually possible to automate effect bypass. To do so:

  1. Select the “EnableWet/Dry” command visible in the menu in your screenshot. This will cause the effect’s “Wet Mix” drawer to appear.
  2. In the “Wet Mix” drawer, automate the slider. If automation causes the slider’s value to be reduced to “All dry,” the spatializer effect is bypassed: It ceases to process the signal and is automatically optimized away until the wet mix is automated back to a higher value.

As of the time of writing (July of 2026), we do not support automating rolloff mode and envelopment mode because we are not aware of any use-case in which it would be useful to adjust those properties in real time. Could you please describe what you’d like to use rolloff mode and envelopment mode automation for, so that we can understand how best to make this feature suit your needs?

the wet/dry workaround is something I also figured out and using it.

The request for full feature automation, as we are used to VST FX in Nuendo, is just acommon request.

Thanks for the help :slight_smile:
