> **[Test 512](https://arcade.makecode.com/S27692-35363-45358-44038)** > > Made with ❤️ in Microsoft MakeCode Arcade. Nothing in this project except play a very short song, then score up by 1. Once it tries to play the 513th song, it hard-freezes. I’ve been using songs in my other project, and after 512 songs there the same thing is happening. Any way to fix this? ---

can you be a little more specific about what you’re trying to do? maybe share a link to the actual project you’re having trouble with instead of this demo? ---

Move left, Move right, rotate, place, clear line, etc but I swapped them all out for sine waves last night. I learned that my firefox crashes at 512, while my google crashes at 2048. ---

@ZadikGooba yeah, I think you were probably hitting a browser limit on the number of web audio nodes that can be allocated and then disposed. Would you mind opening an issue for this? We could probably be a bit more efficient about reusing them. > **[Issues · microsoft/pxt-arcade](https://github.com/microsoft/pxt-arcade/issues)** > > Arcade game editor based on Microsoft MakeCode.
