 All of these operations are also available from Ardour's main *Region*
 menu.
 
 This section describes a few of the most commonly used operations
 accessible from these menus.

--   **Play**: play back from the beginning to the end of
-    that Region (shortcut "*H*").
--   **Loop**: set the loop range to fit that region's duration, and
-    start looping it right away.
--   **Rename**: change a region's name.
--   **Properties**: lots of information on the region, plus ability to
-    change its gain.
--   **Position**: among other options, in this sub-menu you will find
-    The **Lock** toggle box: it locks the Region so that it cannot be
-    Moved or Trimmed. It can still be Split, however, and the resulting
-    Regions will be unlocked.
--   **Edit**: in this sub-menu you find useful tools such as **Pitch Shift** (shortcut "*Alt + 8*") and **Reverse** (shortcut "*Alt + 4*"). Pitch Shift alters the pitch of a region without changing its duration. Reverse makes the region play backwards.
--   **Gain**: useful options such as **Mute** (shortcut "*Alt + 1*), **Normalize** (shortcut "*Alt + 3*"), **Boost Gain** (shortcut "*Alt + 6*"), and **Cut Gain** (shortcut "*Alt + 7*").
--   **Duplicate**: includes Duplicate (shortcut "*Alt + D*"), Multi-Duplicate, and Fill Track.
-    These were explained in detail in the chapter [Working with
-    Regions](../working-with-regions). 
--   **Spectral Analysis**: window displaying the overall frequency
-    content of the Region.
+**Play**
+: Play back from the beginning to the end of that region (**H** shortcut).
 
-Feel free to explore by yourself other sub-menus not mentioned above.
-Many of them are mirrors of the options you find under Ardour's
-*Region* menu. Below we go into a bit more details on some of the most
-useful functions. 
+**Tag**
+: Give a region some meaningful tag, e.g. "Good" that helps distinguishing it
+from others in the _Regions_ list
+
+**Loop**
+: Set the loop range to fit that region's duration, and start looping it right
+away.

+
+**Gain**
+: Has useful options such as _Mute_ (**Alt+1**), _Normalize_ (**Alt+3**),
+_Boost Gain_ (**Alt+6**), and _Cut Gain_ (**Alt+7**).

+**Duplicate**
+: Includes _Duplicate_ (shortcut **Alt+D**), _Multi-Duplicate_, and _Fill Track_.
+These were explained in detail in the

+: Estimates loudness of a region in LUFS, as well as _Peak_ and _True Peak_
+values.

 ## Pitch Shifting
 
-The **Pitch Shift** (shortcut "*Alt + 8*") function alters the pitch of a region without 
-changing its duration. The function applies a pitch-shifting algorithm 
-to create a new audio clip based on the source clip.

-The Pitch Shift window allows the user to specify the amount and direction of
-transposition desired. The window includes a **Preserve Formants**
-button. When pitch shifting by large amounts, the Preserve Formants
-option can give results that sound slightly more natural, particularly
-when used on vocal material.

 ## Normalize
 
-The **Normalize** function (shortcut *"Alt" + "3"*) non-destructively boosts the level of the 
-selected Region so that the **Peaks** are at 0 dB or less. When Normalizing 
-to 0.0, the region will be as loud as possible while avoiding **Clipping**. 
-Sometimes you may find useful to normalize a region to a value less than 0, 
-such as -1.0, -3.0, or -6.0 decibels, so it doesn't become too loud.

-Two other useful gain operations for regions are Boost Gain (*"Alt" + "6"*), and Cut Gain (*"Alt" + "7"*). Be sure to try them out.
+Two other useful gain operations for regions are _Boost Gain_ (**Alt+6**) and
+_Cut Gain_ (**Alt+7**), both incrementing gain by 1dB upwards or downwards.
+Be sure to try them out.
 
 ## Reverse
 
-The **Reverse** (shortcut "*Alt + 4*") function reverses the selected region of audio, in 
-effect causing it to play backwards. Reversing a region creates a 
-new audio file 'behind the scenes'.

-If more than one range is selected, the operation will apply to all of
-them (for example, Normalize, Reverse, etc.)

 ### Combine
 
-Some operations from the context menu will only become available when
-two or more regions are selected. For example, let's take a look at the
-"Combine" function, under the sub-menu "Edit". First we select two
-adjacent regions:

-As a result, the selected regions are combined into one. This is
-particulary useful when you have found an exact sequence of regions that
-works just as you want, and then you would like to copy and/or move the
-whole sequence as group.
