My problem isn’t with MC. It’s with the inability to cut from one sequence to another with out nesting.

This is a good idea for a work around, thank you.
It’s not my ideal workflow but it’s a good one to utilize while I wait for Adobe to get on this.

Ann, that is what is referred to as nesting. You’re cutting in another sequence as opposed to the original multi-clipped media. In the example I gave, wherein I’ve cut in selects from multi-clips, you would no longer have access to the other angles of the multi-clip. This also can cause a headache further down the line when needing to prep for conform in another program, like Autodesk Smoke as the time code and names will all refer to the nested sequence, and not the original source media.

That’s a bummer.
Well, feature request submitted. I’d be really curious about other Premiere user’s suggestions for workflow when pulling selects and then cutting with those. Do people really just make hundreds of subclips and throw them in bins?

Also, Kevin, now that I have your attention I’d love to get in contact with someone on the Premiere team. I work at a commercial post-production house in San Francisco and we’ve recently made the official switch over to Premiere Pro from Avid and FCP 7. We have a list of things like this that we’d love to share directly and have an open source of communication about. We are also interested in beta testing.

thanks,
Matt
