'Object reference not set to an instance of an object' using 'trigger Enter' Play event

Hey all!

Using Unity for the first time to implement some work i’ve been doing in FMOD.

Following tutorials has been great, BUT, i cannot use the studio event emitter to trigger sounds and every time I try to attach a sound from my Event browser i get this message;

NullReferenceException: Object reference not set to an instance of an object

I assume that this is why (its a red exclamation mark error) the triggers aren’t working.

If anyone has a solution to this I would be very grateful. Been wondering wtf I’ve been doing wrong for the last week and getting nowhere.

V happy to give more info if needed.

Yours

very gratefully

Ed!
