I don’t understand what you mean by ‘space’?
move and rename your sample test.aif for the path and the name file don’t include space (my english is not perfect i’m french)
by the way aiff with 2 f or 1f ?
just try this code into another buffer
hi_hats = "/Users/samhumphreys/test.aif"
sample hi_hats
edit : in the doc, there is no space in the path to the file
https://sonic-pi.net/tutorial.html#section-3-6
I still don’t understand what you mean.
it is aif with one f
you see your path, the path is the way for your computer to reach your sample ok ?
no space in the path here
hi_hats = "/Users/samhumphreys/test.aif"
spaces in this path
hi_hats = "/Users/samhumphreys/Library/Mobile Documents/com~apple~CloudDocs/2020/2021/Te Kura/Music/Sonic Pi/Hi hat loop for Sonic Pi.aif"
in the name folder and in the filename.
is it more clear ?

If yes maybe use \ instead /, you are on mac ?

Remove the leading spaces.
Can you access the file with another program using this path?
