If by scrubbing you mean using the arrow keys to move right and left inside a piece of audio and hear where you are every second, the answer is yes, you can. Are you yet familuar with how Amadeus Pro works? You need to get used to one concept that really through me at first-and framkly-was almost a turn off until I worked out how to make good use of it. It's the fact that, unlike Sound Forge, there are in fact two cursers in amadeus Pro. You have the playback head and the insertion point. They don't follow each other, so, if you stop the playback head with the space bar, you need then to press command+y to manually rout the insertion point to the playback position. At first, this seems a waste of time and counter intuative, but, keep at it, and you'll soon figure out that there are sometimes advantages to having it this way. AS to setting and dropping markers, easily done. As to voice over work, There's a very nice and really fast easy way to do this using Amadeus Pro. I've come to really love it as a basic audio editor and hoast for some really fine plugins from RX.
