Hey y’all! I love the new command block modifications.

I’ve ran into a bug and was wondering if I accidentally uncovered something that isn’t supposed to be a feature.

So, with the new command instrument, you can adjust global parameter values, or increment them.

However, I wanted to achieve a smooth increment, much like you can do with snapshot instruments on a timeline, by automating it.

If I even think about adding an automation on a command instrument, FMOD dies.

Since I know this could simply be a bug, I’m mostly now curious so I can set my expectations properly.

Bug, or not a feature? ![Screen Shot 2020-07-15 at 5.54.04 PM](https://canada1.discourse-cdn.com/flex036/uploads/fmod/original/2X/6/6680505ae5cd67238288c22e5257ff3d404c1a3c.png)

Hi C418,

This functionality is currently not supported. We will look to add it in a future version.
