Default Showing the needle on all tracks

I have to line up some tracks so the playback at certain spots on each starts at the same time. They have various lengths up to that spot.
Some 56 sec, other 13 sec etc.
I usually do this by zooming in very tight an the slide the tracks around until I see the wave form being lined up.

I'm wondering if there is a way to have the needle show all the way down each track while it's not playing. I know this automatically happens once you hit play but can I see the needle while the software is stopped?

This is my idea of lining up these spots in the tracks.

Now, if you have a better idea of lining these tracks I'd be very happy to learn it.
Basically I have an acoustic guitar that I just recorded on six different tracks using six different mics at six different times, so they were not all recorded at the same time, and I want to have them all start at various points through out the song at the exact same time.

I know this is a bit convoluted so I hope I have made this somewhat clear.

Thanks

GD
