I forgot one detail: by doing my method, you’ll be facing a bug I already reported [here](https://qa.fmod.com/t/quantized-async-instruments-strange-behavior/17802). The workaround is to make your instruments really tiny.  
By the way, @richard_simms or @joseph, this bug still hasn’t been fixed in 2.02.04 and .05, though it is quite annoying: I guess this thread is the 3d time the solution I suggest would work except for this bug. Is it planned to be fixed soon?
