FMOD Ex 4.10 and FMOD Designer 4.11 are out!

10-12-2007
This new update of FMOD Ex API and FMOD Designer brings new features and updates. Click below for more

  • Added DSPNet Listener.exe application! Now you can visually view what is happening inside FMOD Ex's DSP network while your application runs, over TCP/IP.
  • Added ability to change output driver at runtime on windows and macintosh without restarting or reloading data.
  • Added ability to be notified when the number of attached audio devices changes. (Windows and Mac only).
  • Optimized FMOD_DSP_LOWPASS_SIMPLE and FMOD_DSP_ITLOWPASS effects.
  • Improved MIDI playback and DLS support.
  • Many other improvements with programmer API functionality.


    FMOD Designer updates! Designer is now at version 4.11, changes include:
  • Added a "Language" drop-down box to the global toolbar. Use this to add, edit and select languages. Controls wave source paths and filename prefixes.
  • Added an "Occlusion" effect. This lets you set the cutoff for the built in lowpass filter effect instead of using extra memory to add new lowpass filters to each event.
  • Added pre- and post-save commands. These can be used for source control management and file pre- or post-processing.
  • Added the BuildFiles macro for pre- and post-build commands (gives a list of all output files for this build)
  • Added a "Spawn intensity randomization" Event property. The event spawn intensity is randomized based on this value when the event is started.
  • Added a Message Log window which keeps a log of all status, warning and error messages for the current Designer session. This window can be shown/hidden with the View->Message Log menu entry.
  • Added a "Pitch randomization units" Event property. If this property is set to a unit other than Octaves, the randomly generated pitch variation is snapped to exact multiples of that unit.
  • Added a "Pitch units" Event property, allowing event pitch to be specified in Octaves (fractional), Tones or Semitones
  • Added the ability to edit effect envelope colours via the context menu
  • Added "Open in external editor" commands to the context menus for wavebank entries and sound definition entries (uses the system file type association)
  • Improved performance of the event editor
  • Added support for MinGW toolchain and Designer source code compilation with Qt/OpenSource (for licensed developers).
  • User interface now consistent across Windows and Mac
  • Added "ProgrammerSelected" to sound definition "Play mode". Use this to allow the programmer to choose sound definition entries at runtime.
