love.sound.newSoundData
Creates new SoundData from a filepath, File, or Decoder. It's also possible to create SoundData with a custom sample rate, channel and bit depth.
The sound data will be decoded to the memory in a raw format. It is recommended to create only short sounds like effects, as a 3 minute song uses 30 MB of memory this way.
