FMOD.Studio.PARAMETER\_DESCRIPTION paramDesc; eventDescription.getParameterDescriptionByIndex(0, out paramDesc);  
Debug.Log(paramDesc.name);

You can either cast the StringWrapper to a String:

```
Debug.Log((string)paramDesc.name);

```

Or it contains an implicit assign operator:

```
string name = paramDesc.name;
Debug.Log(name);
```
