How can you check the length of an audio piece, without having to listen for however long it is? Is there some sort of function that checks this?

Yes, I made a function that allows you to figure it out, however, it does take some time. The amount of time it takes to get a length depends on the getSpeed argument, however, when the getSpeed increases the length is less accurate. (Still pretty accurate,however.)
-- Created by Basscans
function getSoundLength(sound,getSpeed) -- The max for getSpeed is 9.519
local restoredP,restoredV=sound.Pitch,sound.Volume
sound.Pitch=getSpeed
sound.Volume=0
sound:Play()
local timestamp=tick()
repeat wait() until sound.IsPlaying==false
sound:Stop()
sound.Pitch=restoredP
sound.Volume=restoredV
return ((tick()-timestamp)*getSpeed)
end

I can create a web API to do this, but I'm not sure it's possible with RBX.Lua
