In FMOD Ex I could limit max number of playing instances per category. It would be great if I could limit instances per groups and not events only. ---

In Studio, the Group Bus is the replacement for Designer’s event categories. You can create a group bus in the Mixer window and then route your events to it with drag-and-drop. Use the Bus Polyphony setting to limit the number of events playing through a particular group bus. This is a new feature of Studio 1.07, which is due for release within the next two weeks. ---
