<p>The different types of fades are:<br>

<ul>
- <li><kbd class="menu">Linear</kbd> : A simple linear coefficient decrease, and its
+ <li><kbd class="menu">Linear</kbd>: A simple linear coefficient decrease, and its
mathematical inverse. A Linear fade starts attentuating quickly
and then cuts off even more abruptly at lower levels. When used
as a crossfade, the signals are each -6dB attenuated at the midpoint.
This is the correct crossfade to use with highly-correlated signals for
a smooth transition.<br>
</li>
- <li><kbd class="menu">Constant Power</kbd> : The constant power curve starts fading
+ <li><kbd class="menu">Constant Power</kbd>: The constant power curve starts fading
slowly and then cuts off abruptly. When used as a crossfade
between 2 audio regions, the signals are symetrically attenuated, and
they each reach -3dB at the midpoint. This is the correct crossfade to
use when you want to splice audio in the general ( uncorrelated ) case.<br>
</li>
- <li><kbd class="menu">Symmetric</kbd> : The Symmetric fade starts slowly, then
+ <li><kbd class="menu">Symmetric</kbd>: The Symmetric fade starts slowly, then
attenuates significantly before transitioning to a slower fade-out near
the end of the fade. When used as a crossfade, the Symmetric
curve is not mathematically correct like the Equal Power or Linear
sometimes useful when editing 2 entire music works together so that the
transition is more gradual.<br>
</li>
- <li><kbd class="menu">Fast</kbd> : The Fast curve is a linear decibel fade; It sounds
+ <li><kbd class="menu">Fast</kbd>: The Fast curve is a linear decibel fade; It sounds
like a perfectly smooth fader or knob moved to silence. This shape is
excellent as a general-purpose fade-in. When used as a
crossfade, the inverse fade curve maintains constant power but is
therefore non-symmetric; so its use is limited to those cases where the
user finds it appropriate.</li>
- <li><kbd class="menu">Slow</kbd> : The Slow curve is a modified linear decibel fade.
+ <li><kbd class="menu">Slow</kbd>: The Slow curve is a modified linear decibel fade.
The initial curve starts more gradually so that it has a less
abrupt transition near unity. After that, it sounds like a
perfectly smooth fader or knob moved to silence. This shape is excellent as
