I’m very new to unity, and I want to make what should be the simplest thing in the world.

I want a 2D scene with a handful of buttons, when I click a button it starts the associated FMOD event. When I click it again it stops the event.

I also need some buttons to modify event parameters, preferably over X seconds so it’s a smooth change.

There’s no character so to speak, no environment, no movement, basically I just want to make a soundboard that uses the power of FMOD. Help?

I recommend looking at our [Basic Unity Scripting Example](http://www.fmod.org/documentation/#content/generated/engine_new_unity/script_example_basic.html)

You’ll need to be familiar with Unity Scripting in general and the best place for that is [Unity itself](https://unity3d.com/learn/tutorials/topics/scripting)

Unity would also be the best place to learn about their [UI system](https://unity3d.com/learn/tutorials/topics/user-interface-ui).
