  • Ripple Rate Stretch?

    Posted by Brian Sarfatty on September 12, 2012 at 9:15 pm

    Learning Premiere Pro from FCP/Avid. The Rate Stretch tool is really neat, BUT I can’t seem to make it ripple. So if you want to time stretch a clip but have clips ahead of it in the timeline, I have to select all clips ahead, drag them out of the way, then do the rate stretch? Am I missing something? There’s no way to make Rate Stretch a “ripple” edit to push material ahead out of the way as you pull it?

    First, I’d file that as a feature request: https://www.adobe.com/cfusion/mmform/index.cfm?name=wishform

    The way to have trailing clips ripple would be to use the speed/duration command which is a right click. There, you can choose to ripple trailing clips.

    Hope this helps.

    I know this is old but has this been addressed to date?

    I have a solution to this.

    Simply highlight the clip that you want to ripple rate stretch and alt copy it up on the the track above. Now you have two clips the same, on top of each other. Change to the ripple edit tool, B on keyboard for me, and ripple edit the top clip to the length that you desire. This will create a gap. Now rate stretch (R) the clip underneath to match the same length as the top one and fill the gap. Select and delete the clip on the top.

    Its a quick two step way to achieve the same thing.
