Prelisten Section for Instruments

The Prelisten section below the results list allows you to listen to the selected instrument.

Level

Adjusts the playback level.

Play

Plays back the focused file.

Stop

Stops playback. The playback cursor jumps back to the start of the file.

Prelisten in Place

Activates prelistening for the selected instrument. This allows you to listen to the instrument in the context of a running style or pattern.

Click the triangle above the button to select a prelisten option.

  • If Always is selected, selecting an instrument in the results list triggers the instrument.

  • If Auto is selected, selecting an instrument in the results list does not trigger the instrument if the Style Player or the MIDI Player are playing. This prevents the prelisten instruments from being triggered off the beat.

Note

As soon as the instrument loses the focus in the results list, the Prelisten function stops, and the original pad content is played again. This allows you to quickly compare two instruments, for example.
