^ the above is a mess. I know! Because I spent all day yesterday and most likely today trying to seperate sound effects and music. 

Music should play the music with the gain and volume rules. See below 
            Dim musicDetails As String() = SelectedMusic.Split(", ")
            Dim musicFileName As String = musicDetails(0)
            Dim volumeLevel As Integer = Integer.Parse(musicDetails(1).Split(":")(1))
            Dim gainLevel As Integer = Integer.Parse(musicDetails(2).Split(":")(1))

            musicWaveOut.Volume = volumeLevel / 100.0F ' Assuming volume level is between 0 and 100
            musicReader.Volume = gainLevel / 10.0F     ' Assuming gain level is between 0 and 30

SoundEffects should IGNORE the above completely and play the files at the default sound. I'm half tempted to create demensional arrays for the soundeffects! And have them play directly from their source. For example.

Dim SoundEffects(50) as list of sound
Const PlayerMoves as integer = 1
Const BlockMove as integer = 2
Const BreakLaser as integer = 3

PLaysound(SoundEffect(PLayerMoves))

I'd much rather keep it tidy, but I have to go that router, god dang it I will
