Premiere Flattens Sequence – Source / Record Editing

[Nicholas McGregor]

Hi all,

I’ve noticed that when I edit from the multicam nests in Premiere’s source monitor and overwrite it onto the program monitor timeline, it retains all the individual video and audio tracks that are selected.

However, when I try to put an edited sequence into premiere’s source monitor and then overwrite it onto the program monitor: it flattens the entire sequence into a single nest. Does anyone know how to fix this and how to prevent it from happening?

When you say flatten do you mean it places the sequence within a new sequence (the term is nesting)?

Hey Eric – yes that’s correct. It’s nesting the sequence that’s in the source monitor when it is being overwritten onto the program monitor timeline.
