I keep getting an error saying loadSound is not defined here is my code if anyone can help me out. index.html ```auto Server ``` the js code ```auto var song, analyzer, fft, peakDetect, peaks; var timestamp = new Date().getTime(); var canvas; function preload() { song = loadSound("song.mp3"); song.play(); } function draw() { background(51); } function setup() { canvas = createCanvas(windowWidth, windowHeight); } function windowResized() { resizeCanvas(windowWidth, windowHeight); } ``` any idea why i keep getting this error all libraries are up to date ---

Nope, not at all! 🕶 But after a 2nd glance on your own “index.html”, I can see those “.js” files are loaded outta order! 😰 Always keep in mind the library file “p5.js” is the main 1. 🗓 And the other “p5.some\_addon\_lib.js” files depend on it. 🙇‍♂️
