- If you <dfn>copy a region</dfn>, it initially shares the same name as the original.
- When you perform an operation modifies one of the copies, Ardour will
- increment the version number on the particular copy that changed.
+ Duplicating or splitting a region creates new region(s) that
+ are based on the same original files. Hence, they share the same base name (in the
+ exemple above, <samp>Hang drum-1</samp>), but their version number will be incremented
+ each time. Duplicating <samp>Hang drum-1.4</samp> by <kbd class="mod1 mouse">left</kbd>
+ dragging it will create a new region called <samp>Hang drum-1.5</samp>. Splitting
+ <samp>Hang drum-1.5</samp> by hitting the <kbd>S</kbd> key will remove the
+ <samp>Hang drum-1.5</samp> region and create two shorter regions named
+ <samp>Hang drum-1.6</samp> and <samp>Hang drum-1.7</samp>.
