Hi,
The relevant code is here:
```
me.dir(C:\Program Files (x86)\ChucK\audio\123.wav) => string path;
```
At this point, the string "path" is "C:\Program Files
(x86)\ChucK\audio\123.wav".
```
"/audio/123.wav" => string filename;
// + sign connects strings together!
path+filename => filename;
```
so when you concatenate it with the "filename" string, you end up with a
string with the contents "C:\Program Files
(x86)\ChucK\audio\123.wav/audio/123.wav", which is not the correct path.
The correct code might look like this:
```
// get file path
me.dir("C:\Program Files (x86)\ChucK\audio\") => string path;
// sound file we want to play
"123.wav" => string filename;
// + sign connects strings together!
path+filename => filename;
```
I haven't been able to test this, since I'm not at a Windows computer right
now, but if my understanding is correct, it should work.
Hope that helps!
Best,
Hugh
