Fast forward of attached audio

I have an automation that sends out MIDI timed to an audio track.
When I'm troubleshooting, I find I have to play the entire audio track from the beginning to get to the end of the track where the MIDI commands are.
Is there a way to fast forward through the song to the section I want to troubleshoot without losing the timing of the MIDI connected to that specific place in the song?

No, there's no way to skip around in an automation track. That's on my wish list and I'll add a vote for you.

If you put your MIDI messages into Standard MIDI File and attach that to your recording, then when you skip around in a recording, the SMF will move with it. But that would require that you do all your MIDI programming in another app and save everything into a file, instead of using BandHelper's own system of MIDI presets and attaching presets to songs.

In the new app version 2022-12-12 released today, you can add the new Automation Controls item to a layout. This includes a slider to move around in the automation track, plus the waveform of associated recordings or videos and the location of existing automation events for reference. This is shown in the last screen shot on this page:
