  // start the sound engine with default parameters
  ISoundEngine* engine = createIrrKlangDevice();

  if (!engine)
    return 0; // error starting up the engine

  // play some sound stream, looped
  engine->play2D("somefile.mp3", true);

  char i = 0;
  std::cin >> i; // wait for user to press some key

  engine->drop(); // delete engine
  return 0;
}

     // play a sound file
     engine.play2D("somefile.mp3");

What features do you need that miniFMod can't accomplish?

i've used bass more than any, it's stuff like the filters, 3D Surround, Channel Mixing, automatic looping / ramping. as when I play a tune in winamp, mad tracker, bass or bass mod it sounds a lot different to how it is outputted in MiniFMOD / ufmod.
