I was just making some simple events (with about 5 audio clips, and no effects), and FMOD Studio crashed. I tried again, it crashed. 5 times in a row.

Here is the crash dump: [https://drive.google.com/file/d/1lDPeqpEy2hJd9bVC6nvimuX8P3fTqTDu/view?usp=sharing](https://drive.google.com/file/d/1lDPeqpEy2hJd9bVC6nvimuX8P3fTqTDu/view?usp=sharing)

Also, here’s the end of the log:

Ah ok, we’ve actually uploaded a patched version for that one. Please go to [the Download page](https://fmod.com/download) and download it again. Alternatively, 2.03.08 will be out soon.
