  Hi @burakkilic - Gideros doesn't support aiff, but wav and mp3 are fine. Are these files definitely 16bit / 44.1MHz...? Maybe you could post up the files and/or code...

  I think the problem is about simulator in IOS. When I launch on device, there is no problem.

  also if you can attach your .mp3 files, we can find the problem?

  I tried these in Windows, and they seemed fine with a simple test:

  
  local soundfile = Sound.new("alkis.mp3")
  soundfile:play()
  

  I then tested in Snow Leopard and I couldn't get any sound at first, though there were no error messages either. I installed Audacity and LAME to experiment with the files and it immediately started to work...(but this was maybe some glitch or confusion on my part, unless there's any logical reason why installing LAME should make a difference.)

  @BJG maybe because these sounds are hipsters and LAME takes all the cool out of your Mac. No? I thought so, just a dumb joke
  
  There might be some encodings and whatnots at fault here

  need... closure!!
  
  *** Tag information for alkis.mp3
  === TSSE (Software/Hardware and settings used for encoding): Encoded with cleaner
  *** mp3 info
  MPEG1/layer III
  Bitrate: 128KBps
  Frequency: 44KHz
  
  *** Tag information for place.mp3
  *** mp3 info
  MPEG2/layer III
  Bitrate: 40KBps
  Frequency: 22KHz
  
  place.mp3 is mpeg2/layer3 which is not your usual mp3 file. for alkis.mp3 i blame the encoder, must have left some junk there.
