Hi

Just thought I’d throw a couple suggestions/requests out there. Love FMOD but these small things get to me sometimes haha… If these already exist please let me know!

Would be great to get some options in preferences for default DSP/Effect colours. e.g, Send = Purple…. Spatializer = Green

Also the ability to remember DSP/Effect minimise states, I often like to keep everything compact and clean by minimising sends and effects but when clicking back into the event they all expand again. An option for them to be minimised by default or remembering the states per event would be great.

Thanks so much!

Hi,

Thank you for the suggestions.

I have created a task to investigate this feature. In the meantime an option could be creating the effect in the Shared Effect Browser

Assign colors to effects and then add those to audio tracks

If you do not want the effects to be updated with the other shared effects you can `Detach from Shared Effects` in the content menu:

This task is in our backlog and I have added your interest to the task.
