When the speaker button is enabled, each time you set the focus on a Sound by clicking
it in the Sound List or in Pad view, this Sound will be played back. This is useful as
quick reminder of the various Sounds loaded in the Group.
Sounds  cannot  be  moved  within  the  Sound  List  when  Pre-listen  (speaker  button)  is
switched on.
Pre-listening to Sounds on the Controller

when you press a pad you both trigger its Sound and bring it into focus at once. Hence, you
don’t need to enable anything, pre-listening to Sounds in the focused Group is working out of
the box.
Setting the Focus on Sounds without Triggering Them
You can also set the focus on any Sound in the current Group without triggering it. This comes
in handy if you are in a live situation and don’t want to trigger every single Sound you select.
To do this, use the Select mode:
