Can you not test a sound first inworld before you upload it?

Is there a way to preview the sound you want to upload in game b4 you pay to do so?  Would suck if the sound isnt loud enough, or too loud..

 

EDIT: I'm NOT talking about BUYING.. I'm talking about UPLOADING them myself

Most sellers have a listen option before you buy. Just TP inworld and test before puyrchasing.If there is no demo option, don't buy.

No, you can't preview a sound. And there is a limit to how much you can amplify the sound once it is in world.  My own rule is to make the sound in my editing program MUCH louder than I want it to be, without getting it too ragged, and then upload it.  You can always make a sound softer in SL.  Your other option, of course, is always to do any test uploads to the Aditi (beta) grid, where they don't cost you anything at all.
