MusicVisual | Live coding by Yuan Ren in OF COURSE | Learning library

I have been trying to make a music visualizer app using Vue and P5, and after tinkering with P5 using this article as my guide (https://medium.com/js-dojo/experiment-with-p5-js-on-vue-7ebc05030d33), I managed to get a Canvas rendered with some cool looking graphics.

Now, I am trying to create a link between the waveform/amplitude of a given song and the visuals rendered in the canvas. I have been trying to get the constructors/functions from the P5.sound library to load a song from a file path, and then use the output from a FFT object to control the visuals rendering in the canvas.

Now, my research has indicated that the P5 library must be run in instance mode in order to function (https://github.com/processing/p5.js/wiki/Global-and-instance-mode), and I have done my very best to adhere to this approach in my Vue project. But although the visual rendering works, none of the P5.sound functionalities do.

Here is the code to my model which sets up the P5 objects:
