The bank entries in the strings bank now include the banks folder paths as setup in the banks browser. This is independent of whether the build output mirroring option is enabled.
The FMOD Core API example plug-ins (FMOD Gain, FMOD Distance Filter) are no longer included as pre-build examples. Projects using these plug-ins can build these plug-ins from source.

New in FMOD Studio 1.10.11 (Feb 6, 2019)

New in FMOD Studio 1.10.09 (Oct 15, 2018)

Features:
Extended the available multi instrument playlist modes to include the
"Randomize" and "Sequential - Global Scope" options. The two existing modes
("Shuffle" and "Sequential - Event Scope") have been renamed to better align
with their behaviors, as described in the notes section below.
Added autocomplete support to the scripting terminal in the console window.
Completions can be manually shown using the Ctrl+Space shortcut.
Improved support for multi-line text input in the scripting terminal. The text
input area will increase its size and become scrollable to accommodate
multi-line text input. New lines can be added with Shift+Enter. When entering
multi-line text, the Ctrl+Up and Ctrl+Down keys can be used to cycle through
input history.
Added File > Refresh Modified Assets menu option to refresh all modified
assets in a project.
Added support for holding the value set for built-in parameters during
playback.
Optimized the time take to display events in the event editor upon selection.
Optimized update times when editing widely referenced parameters, preset
effects, events and snapshots.
Optimized project closing times.
Added a "Filter by Bank" option to the assets browser. This allows you to
filter the assets browser based on whether an asset will be used in a given
bank.
Extended the "Find references..." option to support finding references to a
bank in the assets browser and events browser.
Added a system track to all profiler sessions. This track contains graphs
applicable at the system level. The total CPU graph has been split into two
separate graphs describing the Mixer and Update times individually.
Improved the color contrast for menu items.
Fixes:
Fixed error dialog when importing can sometimes get too large for the screen
by making list of files with errors scrollable.
Fixed revert warning dialog can sometimes get too large for the screen by
making the list of revert items scrollable.

displays.
Added a warning when loading DSP plug-ins that contain identically named
parameters.
Fixed audio files being locked on disk when selected in the assets browser.
Fixed crash when bringing up context menu if multiple tracks are selected
in a nested event.
Notes:
The existing "Randomize" button of the multi instrument has been replaced with
a new playlist mode dropdown. The enabled "Randomize" behavior from older
versions has been renamed to "Shuffle". The disabled "Randomize" behavior from
older versions has been renamed to "Sequential - Event Scope".
The "references:" and "referencedBy:" browser search terms have been merged
to just "references:". Studio will determine which one to used based on the
item you are searching for and the browser you are searching in.
The "A" cues button has been replaced with a "Key Off" button to match the API
call tied to sustain points.

New in FMOD Studio 1.10.08 (Aug 10, 2018)

Features:
Added support for editing the project while simulating playback in the profiler using an API capture. Replaying via simulation no longer requires banks to be built. This allows you to completely remix, solo and mute content of a captured profiler session. This can then be compared to the captured waveform.
Updated the profiler interface to explicitly present "Waveform" and "Simulate" replay options as buttons above the timecode display. This replaces the "Playback with API Capture" toggle button.
The profiler API Calls view now shows calls for the frame corresponding to the current playback position. Buttons have been added to step forwards and backwards through frames.
Added options to expand/collapse automation tracks, automation and modulation, and trigger behavior drawers by default.

Improved performance when adding or removing additional usages of a parameter in large projects.
Added support for building non-streaming and streaming assets to separate banks (".assets" and ".streams" respectively). This is available under the Build tab of the Preferences dialog.
When building metadata and assets to separate banks, the assets bank/s will now be added to the strings bank with the appropriate suffix.
Fixes:
Fixed bug when syncing mixer groups or VCAs to latest, whereby the input of the groups or slaves of the VCAs can become invalid or detached if they are not part of the synced changes.
Fixed crash when attempting to adjust the fader of the global master bus after syncing bus changes from the source control server.
Fixed incorrect display of asset folder hierarchy in the submit dialog.
Fixed Studio generated invalid zip file when packaging project if the total compressed size exceeds 4Gb. Studio now splits the package across multiple files.
Fixed bug with flipping of properties in the event macros to fader not working.
Fixed stale banks not being cleaned up correctly when rebuilding all banks for a given platform.
Fixed bug where copied and pasted snapshot instrument does not expose the snapshot parameters as expected.
Fixed Studio not allowing user to check in newly created presets independently of the events that use them.
Fixed deleted snapshot and/or snapshot group not been displayed with the correctly hierarchy in the submit dialog.
Fixed build issue when using audio tables in conjunctions with building metadata and assets to separate banks.

New in FMOD Studio 1.10.05 (Apr 27, 2018)

New in FMOD Studio 1.10.04 (Mar 6, 2018)

Features:
Added a play count property for single, multi and programmer instruments,
allowing for a finite play count to be specified when looping is enabled.
Improved the workflow of adding a new parameter to an event, reducing
nesting of context menus where possible. Parameters can now be created
within a specific folder by selecting a folder in the context menu's browser.
Improved script function MixerBusEffectChain.addEffect() to accept a preset
effect as an argument for creating a proxy.
Added an option to rename items via context menus and the menu bar.
Improved auditioning behavior to avoid setting timeline positions, 3D
attributes and parameter values whilst paused. This prevents instruments
from being triggered when scrubbing the timeline during playback.
Added ScriptFile.remove() to the scripting API. The function would delete the
file point to by the ScriptFile object from disk.
Added functionality to remove references to parameter from selected events.
Added support for scoping in master bus properties for snapshots.
Fixes:

windows opened during the session.
Fixed the snapshot indicator on mixer strips not disappearing when the last
snapshot property for a strip is removed.
Notes:
The naming convention of mixer views has now been standardized to match the
rest of the system's naming convention where only valid filename characters
are accepted.
Creating item via the buttons in browser now places the newly create item
in the level/folder of the current selection.

New in FMOD Studio 1.10.03 (Feb 1, 2018)

Features:
Added a "Persistent" option to events, available in the event macros panel. Enabling this will keep an event alive until it is manually stopped, even when the event has no active instruments and has reached the end of the timeline.
Added an option to replace a parameter with a different parameter.
Added a build setting to control whether referenced events are automatically assigned to banks. If disabled, all referenced events must be manually assigned to a bank and loaded at runtime. This allows for less data duplication when an event is referenced by multiple banks.
Added support for setting the instance stealing and cooldown time properties for snapshots.
Improved eliding of tab text to make better use of space.
Added new examples script demonstrating how to randomize track and instrument colors.
Added menu items to filter by sends and sidechains in the preset effects browser.

Fixed some buses being muted incorrectly when soloing multiple buses via a bulk edit.
Fixed build determinism issue caused by multiple users scoping in the same property to a snapshot, prior to merging their edits.
Fixed crash when flattening the Asset view after changing the asset source directory.
Improved performance when adding an automation curve to parameter.
Fixed a crash after consolidating parameters if one of the parameters was automated on an event instrument.

Fixed deck panels not being cleared correctly when removing an automated modulator.
Improved load time when selecting an event for the first time in a complex project.
Fixed playback issues with events having more than one tab pointing to the same parameter. Events will now play correctly, although only the first tab's contents will be active. File > Validate Project can be run to detect and fix this issue.
Fixed events failing to stop if they contain empty Single Instruments.
Fixed the 'Move To...' dialog allowing you to move instruments outside of the parameter range in some cases.
Fixed performance issues when zooming in closely to automation tracks that have no curve to display. * Fixed intermittent crash occurring when deleting an event or snapshot.
Fixed Event.addGameParameter scripting function creating a new parameter preset even when an existing parameter preset is passed in as argument.
Fixed Studio not highlighting automation track as bulk editable under certain circumstances.

Improved migration of FMOD Designer simple one shot multisound event such that the migrated event would now terminate when sound finishes instead of the hardcoded length of 60 seconds.
Fixed CPU graphs in profiler sessions using the incorrect value range in some cases, such that spikes in the CPU would not be displayed accurately.
Fixed live update sometimes losing the "reconnecting" state after building banks or switching platforms.
Fixed modulation on certain FMOD effects not getting migrated correctly from an older project version. Affects effects are: FMOD Transceiver, FMOD Tremolo,
FMOD Highpass Simple, FMOD Lowpass Simple, FMOD Distortion, FMOD Pitch Shifter, FMOD IT Echo and FMOD Convolution Reverb.
Fixed multiple prompts appearing for the same return bus, when copying events between projects which contain multiple sends to the same return.

New in FMOD Studio 1.10.01 (Nov 2, 2017)

Features:
Added support for advanced browser search filters. Expressions can be inverted using the "NOT" option (alternatively, "!" or "-"). Expressions can be combined using the "AND" or "OR" commands (alternatively, "&&" and "||" respectively). Wrapping expressions with the "(" and ")" brackets allows for more complex logic to be constructed. Wrapping text with quotes allows for searching for text inclusive of spaces.
Added support for forcing read-only to be writable during saving.

Added experimental support for forcing the displayed device pixel ratio on Windows. This is available under the Interface tab of the Preferences dialog.
Changed the Spatializer pan override settings to use a collapsible deck panel section rather than being presented in a pop-up window. This makes it easier iteratively edit these settings.
Updated AudioMotors to version 2.0.
Fixes:
Fixed keyboard presses getting consumed by the event editor when navigating left and right through the menu bar.
Fixed Studio not providing useful error message when packaging a profiler session if files are missing.

New in FMOD Studio 1.10.00 (Oct 9, 2017)

Features:
Added a new Welcome dialog providing streamlined access to news, learning resources and recent projects.
Completely replaced the FMOD Studio User Manual. The new manual contains all-new content, with succinct and up-to-date descriptions of concepts and a glossary of common terms.
Revamped the live update system. Changes made to the project after building banks will now be synced to the game upon connecting (this can be optionally disabled from the Preferences window). The changes also greatly increase the reliability of live update.
Added support for syncing assets over live update. This means assets can be added to an event while connected to live update, and auditioned directly within the game, without the need to rebuild banks.
Added preset parameters and effects. Parameters and effects can be shared in multiple places throughout the project, greatly improving project scalability. Presets can be browsed at the project-level through the Preset Browser window.
Added support for viewing automations of objects within the deck.
Automations can be found under the Automation and Modulation drawer. This allows automations assigned to presets to be viewed outside of the context of an event.
Added support for showing and hiding automation tracks from the editor view. This can be toggled via a property's context menu.
Added a keyboard shortcut for creating parameters within events or from the presets browser (Ctrl+P).
Added support for implicit parameters. Events will now expose any parameters referenced from an effect or parameter condition, without the need for a tab for each parameter.
Added indicator to show the playback position of parameters on the dial display.
Added support for per platform effects and tracks. This allows for content to be modified or optimized for a particular set of platforms. Excluded tracks will also optimize away any referenced audio content.
Added tabs to the Event Editor. This allows you to browse multiple events within a single Event Editor window.
Improved event playback behavior in the tool to match the in-game playback behavior. Events will now be allowed to end naturally. The playback state of events is now clearly labeled above the timecode.
Added a pause button (Shift+Spacebar shortcut key can be used to toggle the pause state). Changed the stop button to trigger a non-immediate stop on first press, and an immediate stop while in the stopping state (Spacebar shortcut key while playing).
Added tooltips to the transport buttons to indicate their shortcut keys.
Added indicators to show which buses are active in the mixer. This works within the tool and when connected to a game via live update.
Added support for displaying live values in the mixer. These indicators display the effective value of a given property is in the mixer, as they are after snapshots are applied. This works within the tool and when connected to a game via live update.
Added support for more explicit channel formats. You can now set a bus input or output to discrete surround modes. The "Surround" format has been renamed to the "Platform" format, as it matches the platform surround mode selected in the project preferences.
Added support for the 7.1.4 channel format.
Improved channel format propagation. The bus panner will no longer force discrete surround formats to match the platform surround format. Also, the master bus can have format specified independent of the platform format.
Support double clicking number boxes to reset their value. An edit button has been added to the left of the number box to enter text entry mode.
Improved screen space usage in the multitrack.
Added support for resizing the properties area of windows. This permits resizing of the 3D view and notes sections.
Added a velocity property to game parameters, allowing the playback position of the parameter to move by a fixed amount each update.
Added "Expose recursively via event instruments" property to game parameters. This allows events to automatically expose parameters of events that they
reference via an event instrument.
Moved the parameter hold flags to the edit parameter dialog instead of displaying it in the deck.
Added the FMOD Gain effect for doing simple gain adjustments without using the Fader.
Added the spawn rate property to the scatterer. This allows for scaling of the spawn interval range.
Added support for setting the pitch of mixer groups. This will scale the pitch of events routing into this bus. Bus pitch can also be affected via snapshots now.
Added support for customizing the user interface of DSP plug-ins. See the user manual for further information.
Extended support for inspecting the object model via tool scripting API.
Calling studio.project.model.document() will retrieve a summary of the object types available.
Added studio.system.require() to the scripting API (this replaces studio._internal.require()). This allows script modules to be referenced across files (see scripting documentation for further details).
Added the studio.project.Entity.findInstances() and studio.project.Entity.singletonInstance() functions to the scripting API. For example, calling studio.project.model.Event.findInstances() will retrieve all events within a project.
Added the project.buildStarted and project.buildEnded callbacks to the scripting API. These can be used to execute commands before and after builds.
Added a number of entity-specific functions to the scripting API. See the scripting API section of the manual for further details.
Added a "Flatten" option to folder-based browsers. This allows for items e.g. audio files, events, etc.) to be displayed alphabetically in a non-heirarchical list view. This is useful when batch selecting the results of a search filter.
Added the VCA browser to the browser tabs available in the Mixer window.
Added a context menu option to open a bank's built output in Explorer or Finder.
Added a context menu option to remove fade curves from instruments.
Fixes:
Sequential multi and scatterer instruments now track their current playlist entry on a per-event-instance basis, rather than globally.
Number boxes now look correctly disabled in the playlist item display, when no entry is selected.
Markers with identical names are now differentiated correctly in context menus.
Notes:
Terms throughout the interface have been corrected to match a new, more consistent naming convention. The terms "Sound" and "Module" have been replaced with "Instrument". The "Marker" object is now called "Destination Marker". Finally, properties of the scatterer instrument now refer to "spawning" rather than "sounds".
Some scripting API changes have been made which may affect older scripts. These include renaming studio._internal.require to studio.system.require.
Getting and setting parameter cursor positions can now be done by calling the getCursorPosition() and setCursorPosition() functions on the parameter, rather than using the cursorPosition property.

Improved the profiler track heads to display the full path for events and buses. The track subheading will also show the object type
Added support for adding spatial effects (such as the 3D Panner) to any track in an event. Note that content authored to make use of this will only work correctly when using the 1.09.06 Studio API or up
Removed restrictions preventing adding multiple spatial effects to a track
Fixes:

Studio now displays a warning when migrating a Designer project with auto pitch enabled sounds on a parameter with sustain points. This setup is currently not supported by the migration
Studio now displays a warning when migrating a Designer project with event containing multiple parameters with sustain points. This setup is currently not supported by the migration

New in FMOD Studio 1.09.05 (Jun 8, 2017)

Features:
Added support for fine tuning the value of an automation point by holding the control modifier key. Editing automation point values now behaves similarly to dragging the value of a dial control. The control or shift modifier keys can be used to lock the value of the automation point vertically or horizontally, respectively. The alt modifier key can be used to disable snapping while dragging multitrack items.
Added support for migrating FMOD Designer's Reverb Level, Reverb Balance and FMOD Flange.
Fixes:
Fixed newly added automation points not maintaining the value of the original automation curve.
Fixed crash when loading an output plugin.
Fixed the 3D Preview being visible when the first selected event in the event editor is not 3D.

Fixed FMOD Designer to FMOD Studio migration not attenuating the wet level for event.
Fixed crash when inserting a destination on a ToOne relationship via script.
Fixed prompt displaying the wrong when renaming a folder or group bus to match another item's name.
Notes:
Studio no longer shows hidden files for Asset view if they are not already imported. This is to prevent hidden system metadata files from cluttering the Asset view. Importing via drag and drop or File->Import Audio Files is not affected by this change.
The GoogleVR plugin has been disabled for Windows XP due to instability on this platform.

New in FMOD Studio 1.09.04 (Apr 11, 2017)

Added an explicit option for Nintendo Switch to the list of available hardware types that can be associated with each platform.
Improved layout and appearance of mixer strips to make better use of vertical screen space.
Reduced the size of the mixer strip header text to allow for more of the item name to be shown.
Added scroll wheel support for the effects deck and mixer editor, to scroll each view horizontally.
Fixes:
Greatly improved performance when attempting to move large number of events between folders.
Significantly improved performance when lazy load occurs after selecting a large number of events.
Fixed the platform hardware types being displayed in an incorrect order.
Fixed a potential crash if sound card returned a driver error.
Fixed the Transceiver DSP clicking/glitching, after resuming from being 'idle' (ie no sounds playing through it).
Fixed 5.1->stereo Prologic 2 downmix causing lack of bass.
Fixed preview with compression and looping for short sounds looping slowly.
Fixed "Find References..." twice in a row not setting the filter correctly.
Fixed crash when walking the 'changelist' relationship of the Workspace object via script.
Fixed replacing an audio file with the same name failing silently if the audio file is already under version control.
Fixed bug where Studio no longer automatically checks out file when making edits and only checks it out on save.
Fixed bug where a single sound waveform for an audio file downloading through
FMOD.io would not appear until the instrument was clicked.
Notes:
The Build shortcut has been reassigned to F7, the Zoom In and Zoom Out shortcuts have been reassigned to [ and ], and the New Project shortcut has been reassigned to Ctrl+Alt+N. This makes more frequently accessed keyboard shortcuts easier to initiate, while allowing for new shortcuts.

Added the Multiband EQ effect. This is a highly efficient effect featuring five toggleable bands that can be set to lowpass, highpass, shelf, peaking, band-pass, all-pass and notch modes.
Added all-new sound module playback visualization. It is now possible to clearly see the playback state of sound modules when triggered on the timeline or via a parameter. This greatly simplifies designing and debugging event playback.
Sound modules have been visually revamped to show loop points more clearly, as well as the zero-crossing line for waveforms. Multi sounds and scatterer sounds will now display a preview of their playlist items in their trigger regions, providing playlist information at a glance.
Added explicit control over synchronous (time-locked) and asynchronous playback of sound modules (which was previously dictated by the looping state). This can be accessed via the 'Async' button in the sound module deck.
Added support for synchronous multi sounds.
Added support for non-looping single sounds which play back synchronously.
This is useful when trying to avoid wrap-around when applying pitch randomization.
Improved the event creation workflow. You can now create a new 3D or 2D event directly, or pick from a user-defined list of Default Events. Default
Events can be added via the Event context menu. The new workflow applies when creating event in the browser, or creating events implicitly by dragging audio files into the events browser.
Improved the multi sound playlist interface. Playlists now have full support for multi-selecting items, including removing or setting the play percentage of items in batch.
Added support for copy and pasting sound modules to and from playlists.
Playlist items now display their implicit play percentages if any of their siblings have a play percentage assigned.
Added support for adding empty single sounds to the playlist of a multi sound to indicate silences.
Added support for multi-channel impulse responses for the Convolution Reverb effect.
Add support for assigning events to VCAs.
Added a buttons bar to the bottom of all browsers, playlists, and condition lists, providing quick access to commonly used menu commands.
Added support for automation of modulator properties.
Added support for asymmetric seek speed. This allows a separate seek speed to be set for ascending and descending changes.
Added support for displaying the stretched waveform of synchronous sounds that have a static pitch change applied.
Added a total event count to Instances profiler graph, which includes instances which are not currently playing.
Fixes:
Fixed incorrect playback volume for sounds and playlist items whose volume property is set to a non-zero dB value.
Improved smoothness of metering levels when connected via live update.
Fixed auditioning of programmer sounds with looping enabled.
Notes:
Synchronous single sounds will no longer be looping by default when they are added. Use the loop button in the deck to enable looping as required.
Incremented runtime bank version, requires Studio API 1.09.00 or later.
Latest Studio API supports loading old bank versions from 1.03.00.
Disconnected sidechain modulators are now inactive. Previous behavior was to fall back to monitoring the event's master track output.

New in FMOD Studio 1.08.09 (Aug 2, 2016)

Features:
Browser selection will now take effect on mouse release. This allows for creation of referenced event trigger regions without requiring a second event browser to be opened.
Added new option "-script" to the commandline tool to support automated project processing via scripting.
Added option to switch the time display mode of the transport bar, move-to dialogs and the timeline ruler using buttons in the transport bar.
Time values presented on the transport bar and move-to dialogs can now be incremented using the up and down keys or a vertical mouse drag.
The #unassigned filter will now exclude referenced events.
Added support for dragging multiple modules across audio tracks.
Fixes:
Fixed intermittent crashes when selecting and dragging items within the browser, often occurring when a load is triggered. This also fixes issues with queued mouse presses not being handled correctly while loading is in progress.
Selection of browser items on Mac is now more consistent with the Windows implementation. For example, opening a context menu will select the clicked item before being shown.
Fixed Studio crashing for a new project if the user account name contains foreign character not found in the system locale.
Improved build time when multiple editors for the same project are opened.
Improved time taken to delete folder containing large number of events.
Fixed Studio not cleaning up obsolete folders when migrating from a project that is of version 1.05 or older.

Notes:
The Two Big Ears 3Dception trial has been removed from the plug-ins list as it is no longer supported.
Controls which cannot be scoped into a snapshot, such as buttons and dropdowns, will now display their baseline values, even when viewed in the context of a snapshot.

New in FMOD Studio 1.08.08 (Jul 28, 2016)

Features:
Added support for auditioning assets with their final compression settings. This can be enabled by clicking the "Compress" button below the audio file display.
Added support for looping auditioning of assets. This can be enabled by clicking the "Loop" button below the audio file display.
Metering information is now displayed along with fader values in the birds eye view of the mixing desk.
Added option to enable include sub directories for audio tables. The keys of the entries will be the relative path separated by forward slash.
Improved accuracy of Designer envelope migration. Studio now uses additional points and the diamond handles to better approximate the different curve types found in Designer.
Added support for importing Designer's Time Offset to module's Start Offset.
Note: the Start Offset in Studio is in percentage of the audio asset's length or in the case of multisound, the percentage of the shortest audio asset's length. Studio will clamp the value of the original envelope in Designer to make sure all parts of the curve is within the range of 0 to 100%.
Fixes:
Fixed looping sounds in a multi sound playlist failing to stop if the multi sound itself is non-looping.
Fixed Asset browser losing focus after a rename of items resulting in browser not responsing to arrow keys.
Fixed various errors and omissions in the FMOD Studio User Manual.
Fixed project packaging function not including the master bank binary when the "Banks" option is enabled.
Fixed crash when setting the Impulse Response on the convolution reverb.
Fixed issue where after migrating a project and saving, the events can fail to load and present itself in the editor (can be worked around by reloading the project).
Fixed issue where renaming an asset folder with unimported audio files results in the unimported audio files going missing from the view. Instead Studio now attempts to import them prior to renaming.
Fixed bug where the "Open" button in the Browse for Project... dialog remains greyed out under certain circumstances.
Fixed Perforce integration not prompting user to resolve conflict if the project was synced outside of Studio.
Fixed Perforce integration returning an error when attempting to resolve conflict by accepting the server version.
Fixed the automatic input format not being computed correctly when placing modules on the master track.
Fixed the drag drop indicator sometimes being drawn at the wrong location in the browser.
Notes:
Newly created events will no longer send to the global Reverb return by default.

New in FMOD Studio 1.08.06 (Jun 23, 2016)

New in FMOD Studio 1.08.05 (Jun 23, 2016)

Important:
Detection of incompatible DSP plugins has been improved, such that placed instances must strictly match the loaded plugin's description. As a result, some older projects may have their placed plugin instances flagged as incompatible. To assist with this, this version also adds a new plugin repair utility (see below) which can be used to safely migrate old plugin instances.
Features:
Improved build progress granularity when building banks.
Linked the active selection in the Buses browser to the editor selection, in the Mixer window.
Changed the alignment of the Trigger Behavior tab so that it stays in place when opened.
Added functionality to import a profiler session from a Studio generated zip package.

Improved support for high-DPI displays on Windows.
Fixes:
Fixed the email client for the Contact Us dialog and Crash Reporter (this had been disabled due to issues with our underlying email service).
Fixed Studio generating unused {????????-????-????-????-????????????} folder in the profiler user data folder when loading a project.
Fixed issue where the type ordering in browser can sometimes be violated after moving items around.
Fixed stall when creating a new profiler session if there are existing profiler sessions.
Fixed verbose logging not outputting low level logs on Mac.
Fixed migration from 1.07 not generating unique asset names if 2 or more assets have the same path with differing cases.
Fixed extended selection not working properly right after Audio Bin view is opened via "Open in Audio Bin".
Fixed some omissions and errors within the FMOD Studio User Manual.
Fixed Designer effects migrated via plugin not having the correct automation curve and hence incorrect interpolation.
Fixed Perforce integration not reporting an error if there is no available workspace when P4HOST is set.
Fixed Perforce integration not using the environment variables as default.
Fixed Perforce integration not logging in if a valid user and password has been specified.
Fixed crash in "Source Control->Browse for Project..." dialog when clicking the "Open" button if the connection details was changed after a selection has been made.
Fixed Asset view behaving weird after a new folder named "New Folder" is created if there already exists a "New Folder ()".

New in FMOD Studio 1.08.04 (May 26, 2016)

New in FMOD Studio 1.08.03 (May 6, 2016)

Important:
Added new FMOD Studio Getting Started Guide. This can be opened via the Help > Getting Started Guide menu item.
Features:
Added support for complex queries in the browser filter. You can now filter the events browser for events containing a particular parameter or effect, and filter the assets browser by audio file length. Filter suggestions have been added to the loupe menu.
Added support for cooldown time for events. This is visible in the event macros deck. The cooldown time specifies the minimum time before another event of the same type can be played. This is useful for events that are triggered rapidly. This is set to zero (disabled) by default.
Added an option to package a project or an individual profiler session to a zip file. Packages optionally include audio assets, profiler sessions and built banks. This can be initiated by from the File > Package Project... menu item to package an entire project, or via the Package Selection... context menu items for individual profiler sessions.
Updated the AHDSR interface to include number boxes for each component. This makes it easier to edit components independently.
Added support for bulk editing AHDSR values.
Removed restrictions that prevent adding certain types of effects more than once to a given effect chain.
Improved the accuracy of mouse selection in the profiler lifespans view. The selected lifespan will be drawn on top always.
Added a context menu item to modify a snapshot's behavior after it has been created.
Added an a build settings option to disable including audio file names within built banks.
Added support for creating editable combo boxes via the scripting API. Setting the "isEditable" property to true will make it editable and the state can be queried via isEditable function.
Added support to the scripting API to query if the operating system is Windows or Mac OSX. The studio.os.platform property will return either "win" or "mac" respectively.
The user combo box of Perforce setting is now editable. This will allow users using the Helix Cloud to type in the desired user name.
Fixes:
Fixed bulk edit not working correctly if the property is being modulated by more than one modulator.
Fixed crash when validating project if the project contains Mixer View with events assigned to it.
Fixed Audio Bin view allowing unsupported file types to be dragged in.
Fixed shortcut key not working for Open in External Sample Editor.

New in FMOD Studio 1.08.00 (Mar 7, 2016)

Important:
Launched FMOD.io. You can now login and purchase assets via the FMOD.io tab in the Audio Bin window.
The project file format has changed significantly. Please use the in-built migration option when opening older projects.
Features:
Added the 3D Object Panner effect to allow events to be spatialized using Dolby Atmos and Playstation VR technology.
Added tool support for loading custom output plugins and codec plugins.
All-new asset management workflow. Files are now mapped to physical locations on disk, greatly simplifying working with audio files. Finding and replacing files in the Assets folder structure is quick and easy, as they always match the structure you see in Studio. The Assets folder can be mapped to a network drive, or stored separately from the project metadata.
New files are automatically detected when added on disk to the Assets folder. This allow you to set up your DAW to build directly into your project's Assets folder. The assets view also supports filtering by newly detected files.
Added the 'Consolidate' context menu. This is available when selecting multiple audio files in the assets browser and allows you to replace old assets with new ones, or merge multiple existing assets.
Revamped management of encoding settings. Encoding settings can now be specified on a per platform, per folder, and per asset basis from the Assets browser. Assets can be assigned custom encoding settings directly, or can inherit settings more broadly by setting encoding settings at the folder or platform level.
Added support for customizing available platforms for a project including support for multiple platform configurations for the same hardware type.
Adding new platforms to your project can be configured from the Preferences dialog. Build output directory, speaker format, and default encoding settings can all be set on a per platform basis.
Added a status bar. This includes new incators for live update connection status, a validation warnings indicator, and a loading progress bar.
Added active platform selector to the status bar. This allows for building to a single platform, auditioning events in their platform speaker format, and adding per platform encoding settings in the assets browser.
Added a 'Build All Banks...' option to the menu bar. This will build all banks across every platform. The 'Build' menu bar item will now build just the banks required for the active platform.
Added support for left-edge trimming. You can now drag the left edge of time-locked single sounds to trim away the head of an Asset, accurate to samples. This process is non-destructive, much the same as trimming the tail of a file.
Added an offset field to the 'Move To...' dialog to support left-edge trimming.
Added support for setting a start offset as a percentage of a module's content. This allows for setting a start offset that will scale based on the selected content, for example, scaling the offset based on the sound selected in a multi sound playlist. This allows for automation and modulation of start offset over the entire duration of the sound. This complements the newly added support for time-locked left-edge trimming.
Added support for splitting sound modules. This occurs at either the context menu position or at the cursor position, when executed via the menu bar item.
Added a command for replacing a single sound with the trimmed audio. Sounds that have been non-destructively trimmed on the timeline can be replaced with a trimmed copy of the asset, using the 'Replace Audio with 'Trimmed Copy' context menu item.
Added support for snapping automation points to neighboring points, making it easier to create vertical segments in automation curves.
Added the assets browser tab in event editor. The assets browser tab has been added to the Event Editor window for quick access to audio files.
Added support for the 'Decompressed' loading mode. At runtime, this allows for assets to be decompressed into PCM data when they are loaded, rather than being decoded as they are played. This complements the existing
Compressed' and 'Streaming' loading modes. The 'Decompressed' loading mode can only be applied as a per platform encoding setting, under the 'Advanced Loading Mode' drop-down.
Added support for profiling file I/O. A new graph is available in the master track of each profiler session, indicating disk bandwidth usage for bank loading, sample loading, and asset streaming.
Added indicators to event instances in the lifespans view of the profiler. You can now inspect when events have been delayed due to file I/O, or when they have been restarted via code.
Added a new script-based source control plugin interface. Source control can easily be integrated via Javascript.
Added SVN integration (Beta), backing onto the new script-based source control plugin interface.
AT9 Band Extension is now enabled by default for supported bit-rates.

Features:
Added indicators to highlight events that have been referenced and events
that have not been assigned to a bank, in the browser view. A similar indicator has been added the audio bin to visualize which files aren't used.
Extended support for the "Find references..." command. For example, you can find all snapshots that reference a particular bus, find all audio files
referenced by a particular event, or find all VCAs that affect a particular
strip.
Added a "Find sends..." option for return buses. This allows you to filter the events browser by items that send to a particular return bus. You can also filter the routing browser to find other buses sending to a return.
Added support for quantization intervals of up to eight bars for sounds and transition regions.
Added support for keying off sustain points in the sandbox.
Improved the performance and responsiveness of the browser view.
Improved reliability of live update connect.
Improved indicators for when a plug-in is missing.
Improved rendering performance of long transition regions. Quantized transition points will now be drawn as a transparent areas where necessary.
Better support for sounds with channel/speaker masks, ie a 1 channel sound specified as LFE, or a quad sound specified as LRCS instead of 2 front 2 back as an example.
Added multi-select for tracks via their track head widgets. Multi-select track context menu options include delete, copy, resize and change colour.
Extended context menu commands for Markers and Modules to operate on the entire selection when possible.
Fixes:
Fixed the '#referenced' filter being incorrect when a reference is removed from an event.
Fixed output format for single sound not being updated correctly after removing its audio file.
Fixed crash when attempting to convert a snapshot module to a nested event.
Fixed F2 shortcut key for renaming current item in browser not working after switching between windows.
Fixed items being pasted under events, when an event is selected in the browser. Items will be pasted to their closest folder ancestor.
Fixed the scripts menu not showing up on Mac in some cases. Fixed the reverb preset values sometimes being reset or overridden when changing selection.
Fixed multiple issues with visible transition timelines when zooming and scrolling via the BirdsEyeView widget.
Fixed display issues with parameters that begin at a negative value.
Fixed crash when attempting to use the volume and pitch number box in a multisound with nothing selected in the playlist.
Fixed rare crash when saving after syncing to source control.
Fixed crash when resizing transition modules while the multitrack editor view is horizontally scrolling.
Fixed issues when simultaneously moving automation points and using the horizontal constraint feature.
Fixed selection, movement and context menu issues with markers that are locked when a transition timeline is visible.
Fixed ui issue when adding a new track to the multitrack editor while a transition timeline is visible.
Fixed Multi Sounds and Scatterer Sounds not randomizing correctly when editing playlist items and switching between sequential and random mode during playback.
Fixed possible crash when editing play percentages of playlist items during playback.
Fixed crash when pasting objects referencing a deleted transition timeline.

Important:
Studio is now a 64-bit application, providing greater memory capacity and improved performance. On Windows, separate 32-bit and 64-bit versions are available. On Mac, Studio is now 64-bit only.
All plugin libraries must be built for 64-bit architecture in order to be compatible with the 64-bit version of Studio.
The project file format has changed significantly. Please use the in-built migration option when opening older projects.
The Studio tool now supports tracking of anonymous user analytics. This data will assist us in refining interface discoverability and tracking performance within the tool. Users can opt-out at any time via the About dialog.
Features:
Added new scripting system, allowing users to control the interface and modify project data via a JavaScript API. Scripts can be run from the console window, assigned to menu bar items, or triggered remotely from a level editor or external application. Script files with the *.js extension will be searched for in the following directories: %appinstalldir%/Scripts, systemuserdir%/FMOD Studio/Scripts, and %projectdir%/Scripts.
Added support for marquee selection and movement of multitrack items. This includes moving markers, regions, and automation points in unison.
Added support for snapping within the multitrack, including snapping to the ruler, cursor, playhead and other markers, regions, modules and loop points.
Greatly improved project load times. Projects now load 4 to 5 times faster.
Added support for finding all references to an event or audio file.
Added polyphony controls to mixer groups, allowing you to limit the number event instances routed into a group.
Improved nested event workflow. Nested events are now displayed under their parents within the browser. Added support for creating multiple references to a nested event. Added support for converting a nested event to a global event. Added support for converting a global event sound reference to a nested event by making a nested copy.
Added support for profiling of snapshots and their intensities.
Added profiler support for capturing the timeline position of event instances. This can be viewed in the deck, once an instance is selected.
Added an option to filter by referenced events, within the event browser.
Added support for moving the parameter cursor with the left and right keys. The control modifier can be held to move in finer increments.
Added a new Channel Mix effect. This allows you to set per channel gain adjustments, and specify an input channel grouping.
Studio now comes with AudioGaming's AudioMotors and Two Big Ears' 3Dception as built-in trial plugins. Both have include a customized deck interface.
Panels within the properties pane can now be collpased.
Added a welcome dialog which is displayed the first time a new version of Studio is opened. This dialog also replaces the existing About dialog.
Added support for horizontal scroll wheels. This includes horizontal scrolling with trackpads.
Improved support for scroll wheels that track delta values with less than 1/8th of a rotation, such as the Mac trackpad.
Notes:
Incremented runtime bank version, requires Studio API 1.07.00 or later. Latest Studio API supports loading old bank versions from 1.03.00. Mixer inputs have been deprecated; please use mixer groups to achieve the same effect. This allows for a more streamlined workflow, whilst also facilitates runtime optimizations. Old projects containing modified mixer inputs have been migrated to work with mixer groups.
Renamed command line tool for Windows from fmodstudio.com to fmodstudio.exe
Project open and save dialogs now point to the most recent location
The polyphony stealing option "Quietest" has been renamed to "Virtualize", and the option "Off" has been renamed to "None". This more accurately describes their respective behaviors.
Studio will now search for plugin libraries (*.dll and *.dylib files) within the following directories: %appinstalldir%/Plugins, systemuserdir%/FMOD Studio/Plugins, and %projectdir%/Plugins.
Warnings about missing or trial plugins are now shown post build.
