Q: Garageband Display Mode

Hello, you can change the display mode from Beats&Project to time.

If you do this it shows you hours, minutes and seconds.

I need to know the exact time including milliseconds, but they do not show.

(it changes from 12:24.60 to 13:00.00 This means the :24.60 are definitely not proper milliseconds.)

Thank you for your respones

    You can see the time more precisely in the ruler on top of the track area, just use the zoom slider to zoom in as far as possible.

    Only, the tick marks in the ruler are having wrong captions for the first 10th second. The leading "0" is missing. Instead of 0:00:00.01 the ruler is showing 0:00:00.1, the milliseconds part is of by a factor of 10 for the first 10 ticks.

    Thank you for your answer.

    So here is my example from the old garageband:

     

    i can note that the voice on set is at 55,794 seconds.

     

    So how can i read this information in the new garageband?

    Because the ruler runs directly from for example 00:12:24.79 to 00:13:00.00

    so as as number i cant state that the ruler is set on 12,2479 seconds because one millisecond later it says 13,0000.

     

    I hope you understand what i mean.

    Kind Regards

    So what exactly do the 00.00 at the end stand for. They cant be milliseconds because 24.99 doesn't turn 25.00 but 00.00

    I liked the old garageband more, where it was clearly milliseconds with 3 digits after the "." ex: 00:12:23.456 (12 minutes, 23 seconds and 456 milliseconds) i do not understand the new way of writing this.

    In GarageBand 10 it is buggy, as shown in my screenshot. The labels on the first tenth second are missing the leading "0".  And only two digits will be shown in the fractional part of a second.
