Finally got my test project for the FMOD version of Transient Shaper Pro deployed and working on Windows, Mac, Android, and iOS today! My test is a UE5 project to validate my libraries all function in a real integration. @fmodstudio.bsky.social #Musicianeer #TransientShaperPro
A picture of an iPhone with buttons listing sound sources (drums, footsteps, glass), Stop, and Exit next to a slider. The iPhone is held up in front of a computer screen displaying Transient Shaper Pro in FMOD Studio with automation markers over the main three parameters (attack, sustain, output).

I don't know what observing this connection says about me. But I offer it to the world in hopes that we all manifest our futures so sneakily as Nathan Fillion. #nerdStuff #theGuild #VorksDozensDollarIdeas
On the left is an image of Nathan Fillion's cameo on The Guild, Season 5 (2011), wearing a two tone green and black zip-up hoodie opened at the front, peeled back. On the right is a similar two tone hoodie on display, zipped up revealing the Green Lantern logo on the front.
