Editing & Deleting Comments

Once you’ve started leaving comments on your tracks, you might find yourself wanting to refine your feedback or remove something you no longer need. Whether you’re cleaning up a thread of conversation or correcting a typo, editing and deleting your comments is straightforward.

This guide walks you through how to update comments you’ve posted and how to remove them when they’re no longer relevant.

Finding Your Comments

Section titled “Finding Your Comments”

Your comments appear in the Comments widget within the activity panel on the right side of the screen. The widget shows all comments linked to the currently selected track group, displayed in reverse chronological order with the newest first.

Comments that include timestamps from the waveform player will show their timecode badge, making it easy to identify which part of the bounce they refer to. You’ll see your own comments displayed alongside any comments collaborators have left on shared tracks.

Editing a Comment

Section titled “Editing a Comment”

You can update the text of any comment you’ve written. This is useful for fixing typos, adding clarification, or refining your feedback as the track evolves.

How to Edit

Section titled “How to Edit”
  1. Locate your comment in the Comments widget list
  2. Click the Edit icon (a pencil symbol) next to the comment
  3. Modify the text in the input field that appears
  4. Click Save to confirm your changes, or click Cancel to discard them

Your updated comment will display immediately with the new content. The timestamp showing when you originally posted the comment remains unchanged — editing updates only the text body, not the creation date.

What You Can Edit

Section titled “What You Can Edit”

When editing a comment, you can change the text content freely. However, certain properties are fixed and cannot be modified after creation:

  • Timecode position — If your comment was anchored to a specific moment in the waveform, that timestamp stays attached to the comment
  • Linked bounce — The bounce file the comment references cannot be changed through editing
  • Creation timestamp — The date and time you originally posted the comment is preserved

If you need to change a comment’s timecode, it’s best to delete the original comment and create a new one at the correct position.

Deleting a Comment

Section titled “Deleting a Comment”

Sometimes a comment no longer applies, was posted to the wrong location, or simply needs to be removed. Deleting a comment permanently removes it from the track.

How to Delete

Section titled “How to Delete”
  1. Find the comment you want to remove in the Comments widget
  2. Click the Delete icon (a trash can symbol) next to the comment
  3. Confirm the deletion when prompted

The comment is removed immediately and cannot be recovered. Deleting a comment does not affect other comments on the same track.

Understanding Who Can Edit or Delete

Section titled “Understanding Who Can Edit or Delete”

Your ability to modify or remove comments is tied to ownership. You can only edit or delete comments that you authored. This prevents accidental or unauthorized removal of feedback from other collaborators.

If you’re working on a shared project, you’ll see comments from collaborators alongside your own, but the edit and delete options only appear on comments you own. Collaborators retain full control over their own comments.

Pinning vs. Editing

Section titled “Pinning vs. Editing”

Track owners and collaborators with master split rights have an additional option for managing comments — pinning. While you can always edit or delete your own comments, pinning is a separate action that keeps important feedback visible at the top of the list. Pinned comments can still be edited or deleted by their authors.

Comments and Track Changes

Section titled “Comments and Track Changes”

Comments are designed to survive certain changes to your project files. When a bounce is renamed, moved, or even deleted, your comments remain linked to the track group and can be recovered.

If a bounce file is removed entirely, comments that were anchored to that specific file will still exist but may display as “unlinked.” They won’t be tied to a specific waveform position, but the text content and any other metadata remain intact.

This multi-signal anchoring system ensures your feedback persists even as your production workflow evolves — you won’t lose important notes just because you reorganized your folder structure or exported a new version.
