Two Things?

Posted by Darin Griffith on March 29, 2012 at 9:07 pm

I’m a long-time Premiere editor currently working full-time as a video editor. I don’t have time to research the following two items so I thought I would just post them here (while I’m waiting on a render). 🙂

1. Many projects require viewing the clips from the bin one at a time. Is there an easy way to load the next clip in the source monitor (from the bin) instead of double clicking the next clip every time?

2. Is there a way to insert a marked clip from the source monitor into the timeline but only insert video or audio only? I know you can drag the video or audio icons and do it that way but I’m looking for a shortcut to get either video or sound into the timeline.

1) You can drag a set of clips in the source viewer and they will appear in the list in the drop down at the top of the monitor….it’s still mouse driven though….

2) Sure….just disconnect the audio patching in the rtimeline (and disable the track patching)

1) Yes. Go to your Keyboard Shortcuts menu, Panels, and map “Open in Source Monitor” to your keyboard. I have it mapped to Opt+Return. This loads a selected clip/clips in your project panel in your source monitor.

You can also map Source Clip: Next and Source Clip: Previous to your keyboard, so if you load several clips in your source monitor you can scroll through them using the keyboard. I have mine mapped to Shift+Right and Shift+Left.

WIth my setup I can hit Shift+1 to activate the project window, up and down arrow to select my clip(s), Opt+Return to load them, then Shift+Right/Left to cycle through them. Fast and easy, once mapped to your keyboard.

2) You can map Toggle All Source Audio Off/On to your keyboard, or Toggle All Target Audio Off/On, and do the same with Video. So load your clip, hit the keyboard to toggle all Target Audio off and you’ll edit Video only, or toggle all Target Video off and you’ll edit audio only.

I usually create a scratch timeline and drop all the clips I’m reviewing into it. Much easier than reviewing one by one. I’ll nudge selects up to V2.
