Scrub

When you want to find an audio event with absolutely
microscopic precision—such as when you're editing
tracks—use the Scrub feature. Scrub plays a tiny piece
of the project quickly over and over so that by moving
the now line in small increments, you can find exactly
what it is you're looking for. You can listen just before or
just after the now line, and can change the duration of
the audio you hear during scrubbing.
Finding an Event with Microscopic Precision Using Scrub

moving in the wave display as it works.
