So how the topic says, i want to make so the scattered instrument plays short notes and i want to make them play on an specific beat ex:Quarter note,Whole note when my character it’s doing an specific thing for example: Jumping But the problem that i have it’s that if i do automation to trigger the…

Ok, here’s another design for what you want: [FMOD: quantized bass sequence] Note that it could have been even simpler, instead of using nested events, by putting my sounds directly in the main event, but a nested event for the entire sequence makes the copy/pasting easier. Note that a…

Why don’t you rather trigger/untrigger your scatterer instrument with the condition you want, instead of automating the volume? That way, when untriggered, the last sound will play entirely.

Thank you for responding! I did try that solution but the problem that i have in that situation it’s that i want the scatterer instrument to play the sequence that i made in the playlist constantly even if i don’t want it to sound, because, when the player triggers it with the condition that i want…

Doesn’t the quantization on the scatterer instrument resolve that problem? If not, could you share some screenshots and describe more precisely the type and length of your assets and the behavior you exactly want?

It doesn’t because i’m not having trouble making it trigger on the beat, what my problem is it’s basically that i have a base track and a set of notes that has a looping sequence of notes from start to end, and the base track is made so it matches with that sequence constantly, so if i activate and …

Ok but you’ve only set the quantization inside the scatterer (which by the way, you just made me discover, thanks for that!) ; I was talking about the quantization of the instrument itself. But I understand it can’t handle every possibility. I’m talking about this: [image] A few questions, though…

Oooooh hahaha well atleast we both discovered some stuff! Yeah about the quantization of the instrument i also did it to the instrument [Captura de pantalla 2022-01-05 171715] The problem is that let’s say that i want the playlist in the scatterer to play from Q1 to Q10 (names of the elements in…

I also saw that the command instrument could work for what i want but it has delay and it’s really annoying for what i want because of the delay lol

Oooooh it does work completely how i wanted! Thank you so much. I never thought of using an event instrument I really appreciate it man, have a nice day!

I forgot one detail: by doing my method, you’ll be facing a bug I already reported here . 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 tim…

[image] Alcibiade: Is it planned to be fixed soon? Hmm… Looking at our bug tracker, it’s been scheduled to be fixed, so the answer is yes. I can’t give you a precise E.T.A. for when the fix will be released, as our agile development methods mean that both the scope and release dates of new re…
