Samplitude sadly wouldn't preview the shortcuts.

Thanks!


Sound Forge has a preview 'Play' button in its File Open dialogue box
and can play anything.

So does Samplitude, but this only works when listening to audio files in
a certain folder and not useful for something like Win search results
windows. I have so many folders scattered around that it takes too much
time to use it which was why I was looking for a "one click no matter
where" solution.
