Keep the playhead visible in GarageBand on Mac
Using Catch mode, you can keep the playhead visible as the project plays. When you turn on Catch mode, the visible section of a window follows the playhead during playback or recording. When Catch mode is turned off, the display does not update, even when the playhead moves past the right edge of the visible portion of the window.
The Catch buttons for the Tracks area, Audio Editor, and Piano Roll Editor are independent, and can each be set separately.
Turn on Catch mode
In GarageBand on Mac, click the Catch button
in the Tracks area, Audio Editor, or Piano Roll Editor menu bar.
