Comments

Leave public comments on tracks and albums, including waveform-linked comments on tracks.

BeatPass comments are public conversation threads shown on track and album pages. Track comments can also carry a waveform position so other listeners can jump to the exact moment you referenced.

Track Comments vs Album Comments

Content type	How comments behave
Track pages	You can place a comment on the waveform so it shows a timestamp marker, and it also appears as a thread entry below
Album pages	Comments are standard thread comments without waveform positioning

---

Leaving a Track Comment

1. Open the track page

   Go to the full track page so the waveform and comments section are visible.

2. Pick a moment on the waveform

   Click the waveform where you want the comment marker to appear.

3. Write the comment

   Enter your text in the comment form and submit it.

4. Review the result

   The comment appears in the thread, and a waveform marker is attached to the selected position.

If you want the comment tied to a specific drop, transition, or sample moment, pause playback first and then click the waveform at that point.

Upvotes

Each comment shows an upvote button (thumb-up icon) with a visible count. Click the icon to upvote a comment you find helpful. Only upvotes are shown — there is no downvote option.

---

Replies

Signed-in users can reply to any comment, creating a nested thread. Key details:

• Desktop: A visible Reply button appears below each comment.
• Mobile: The explicit Reply button is hidden. Tap the comment itself to open the reply form.
• Max depth: Replies can nest up to 5 levels deep. Beyond that, the Reply option is no longer available.
• Each nested reply is indented to show the thread hierarchy.

Reporting and Deleting

• Report comment — available from the comment’s More menu.
• Delete — available for your own comments, or for the owner or editor of the track or album.

Deleting a comment removes it permanently from the thread. There is no undo.

Where Comments Appear

• Track pages: waveform markers plus the full comment thread below the track details.
• Album pages: the comment thread below the track list.

For playback-specific guidance on waveform markers, see Waveform Comments.

Best Practices

For Listeners

Be Specific

Reference the part of the track or album you are reacting to.

Be Constructive

Helpful feedback is more useful than vague praise or criticism.

Keep It Public-Safe

Comments are public. Write as if the artist and other listeners will read it.

Use Replies

Reply to the existing thread instead of starting duplicate comments on the same point.

For Producers

• Respond when it makes sense to keep the thread useful.
• Moderate thoughtfully — avoid deleting normal criticism.
• Use comment notifications to catch new public feedback quickly.

---

Comment Notifications

Producers can receive Comments & Replies notifications when someone comments on their beats or replies in those threads.

Configure this from Notification Preferences.

Troubleshooting

I can't post comments

Check the following:

• You are logged in.
• Comments are visible on this track or album page.
• Your comment meets the minimum text requirement.

My comment disappeared

Your comment may have been deleted by you, by the content owner, or by moderation staff.

I can't find my waveform marker

Open the full track page and check the same part of the waveform. Waveform markers are only available on track comments, not album comments.

I can't see the Reply button on mobile

On mobile devices, the Reply button is hidden. Tap the comment itself to open the reply form instead.
