Creating dynamic sounds with FMOD

It is possible to create dynamic sounds and music for you mod using parameters in FMOD.

This page assumes you already have FMOD set up for you Heroes of Hammerwatch mod. See Adding custom sounds and music for more information.

Adding a parameter to your sound event in FMOD

Open your event in FMOD use the "+" tab above the tracks to add a new parameter.

If you haven't created the effect that you want to be dynamic, go ahead and do that now.

Right-click on the knob that you want to be dynamically controlled, and select "Add Automation". Your should now see a track for that setting in the track deck.

In the new tab for your parameter, add you desired control points to determine how the setting is changed based on the parameter. There is a scale above the tracks showing the range of your parameter, and above that is a knob for your parameter to test how different values sound. you can also set a default value by right clicking on your parameter knob.
