Is there a way to play only 40 or 45 seconds of my music files?

Hi,

I am looking for a way / a feature to kind of 'preview' tracks. Ideally I would like to hear about 40 - 45 seconds of each track, but would also like to be able to change the set time for a shorter or longer period if and when needed.

Thanks

Thanks for your reply. I am unable to find the stop-time option. Whereabuts is it? I thought it might be under Playback, but if I click Stop, it just stops (obviously). I have also looked under Audio, View and Preferenaces.

I am using a Mac.
