My current project heavy on the code thus far. I would like to add music to it using minim (I'm using a pc) but I keep getting hit with the out of memory error. The song will run but extremely choppy and it makes the program unusable. I changed the max memory in preferences but after trying 4gb with no luck, I figured this just wasn't going to work. Can anyone please look at my code and tell me a way to maybe compress things to save space? or a way to make my program run the way it is?
here is all the code:

You should only load your sound files once!
The draw() function is called 60 times per second, and inside of that you have this code:
case RedBox:
handleRedBox();
player = minim.loadFile("SuperLove.mp3");
In this case, that sound file is going to be called 60 times per second. That's not what you want to do.
Instead, load all of your sound files from the setup() function, and then refer to them inside the draw() function.
