Add Tape/Reel number.
Hi there,
I am another person contemplating switching to PP from FCP.
I am finding my way around with much success.Just have one question. Not sure if this has been answered before.
Is there a way to add Reel/Tape number after the footage has been imported into PP ?
DSLR footage dont get reel numbers by default, and so its difficult to send for proper grade/conform.
In FCP, it was as easy as selecting all clips in the bin, and dial in reel number.
Thanks,

You can, but only to one clip at a time inside of Premiere. In the project bin, hit the “`” key, and it’ll expand to full screen. You should see a column labeled Tape Name (which is what Premiere uses for Reel). just click the blank space in the row you want to edit.
Now, since Premiere project files are just XML documents, you could also edit this information outside of Premiere, but this requires a bit of know how. I use a program called XML Wrench for some of these tasks.
I would love for someone to develop a Premiere-specific XML editor.
