Question

Is there a way to hear the Noise Print, or saved Noise Print, before applying it in the Noise Reduction panel?

Discovering the advantage of saving noise prints, in order to potentially applied them as you go through the track, just wish there was a way to hear, or preview, each individual noise print first, so I know which one would suit the particular situation best.

No, because it isn't audio - it's effectively the parameters of a FFT. The only thing you can do is to use the 'output noise only' button to hear what the effect of your saved noise print is. If you forget to disable this, and apply the processing, you'll end up with nothing but the noise (been there, done that...)

Invariably, the noise print that works best on any sample of audio is the one actually taken from the sample itself.. But it's not even that simple; NR works best when you use a small amount of reduction at several different FFT rates instead of trying to take it all out in one go - you get far fewer artifacts that way.
