Hi,

The `Loading delay exceeded, sound may play at incorrect time` error means that too many samples are being loaded in at once, to solve this we need to change which `FMOD.MODE` we use when creating the sound. The line we will need to change is:

```auto
FMOD.MODE soundMode = FMOD.MODE.LOOP_NORMAL | FMOD.MODE.CREATECOMPRESSEDSAMPLE | FMOD.MODE.NONBLOCKING;

//Too 

FMOD.MODE soundMode = FMOD.MODE.CREATESTREAM;

```

In the `CALLBACK` function. This mode is explained under [FMOD API Reference | Common | FMOD\_MODE.](https://www.fmod.com/docs/2.00/api/core-api-common.html#fmod_mode)

`Waveform instance in error state 38` is due to an invalid seek position being passed into the `createSound()` function. Unfortunately, I was not able to recreate this error when loading in a mod file. However, a solution may be using `StudioSystem.setStreamBufferSize()` to increase read head, as explained under [Core API Reference | System.](https://fmod.com/docs/2.02/api/core-api-system.html#system_setstreambuffersize)

We are always looking to improve our documentation and I have passed on your comments to our dev team.
