Can I use a midi file within Fmod Studio?

I would like to be able to play a sequence on a sound, and also change it’s speed and transpose via a parameter.

Hi Jeff,  
MIDI files are supported in the low level API, which you could trigger as a programmer sound in fmod studio.

It wouldnt be via a parameter, but in the low level code there is a function that allows the speed to change

```
class Sound
{
    FMOD_RESULT F_API setMusicSpeed (float speed);
    FMOD_RESULT F_API getMusicSpeed (float *speed);

```

regards,
