Nearing the end of my mod, I've recently gotten to the less visual more auditory icing on the cake... Problem is, unlike with the visual render window where I can see see almost exactly how things look in game, I don't know how to tell what each musical soundtrack, and Acoustic Space sounds like. The only way I can find out at the moment is putting them in game, loading Skyrim, and my computer can't use the hotloading feature. I did a google search for default Skyrim music/sounds, and that didn't work either.

I assume there is something I don't know? Is there some way in the Creation Kit to hear previews of the sound, or something I can do with software to hear the previews of the sound without having to load up Skyrim itself? Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Double clicking a base sound or music will play it. That obviously won't happen with acoustic spaces however.

Your best bet is to extract the sounds BSA, which will allow you to preview them all independently from the CK.
