Pibox makes it easy to leave precise, time-stamped feedback on any audio file by letting you comment directly on the waveform. This feature streamlines communication by allowing collaborators to focus on specific moments in a file. No more vague messages or guessing what part of the track needs what changes.
You can either watch a quick video or follow the step-by-step guide below to learn how to leave comments directly on the waveform.
How to leave a time-stamped comment
Leaving time-stamped feedback in Pibox is easy! Just follow these 3 steps to learn how to comment on the waveform.
Step 1: Upload and play the file
Upload your audio file to Pibox. Once uploaded, click to play and listen until you reach the part that needs feedback.
Step 2: Select the range
You can create a feedback range in two ways:
Manual selection: Click and drag on the waveform to highlight the section you want to comment on.
The Range button: Click this to automatically select a 20-second range from your current playback position. You can then adjust its length or position.
Note: You can resize or move the selected range anytime to match the exact moment you want to discuss.
Helpful tools in the playback toolbar
Pibox offers several tools to fine-tune your feedback:
Loop – Replay a selected section continuously to review it in detail.
Zoom – Zoom in on the waveform for more precise range selection.
Speed control – Adjust playback speed to listen more slowly or quickly.
Note: Pitch correction is enabled by default to preserve the original tone when changing speed.
Step 3: Write and submit your comment
Once your range is selected:
Click inside the comment box that appears
Write your comment, you can also @mention team members in comments
Press Enter or click Submit a comment
Your comment will now appear linked to that exact range, visible on the waveform. Collaborators can respond directly, keeping the conversation focused on specific moments.
With time-stamped comments on the waveform, Pibox eliminates the chaos of back-and-forth revisions, helping your team stay aligned and deliver faster.
