we might be talking about the same thing.
in the mixer tool, which fader did you work?
the one marked Master, on the far right?
that affects the level of the sequence itself,
and won’t travel if you copy the clips OUT of that sequence and into another one.
the faders from the left, marked A1, A2, etc affect the level of the individual clips
this levels WILL travel with the clips when you copy them.
so if you were adjusting the master level, what can you do?
not much.
if it was a simple lift by Xdb then you can just add that to your clips,
but if you were riding the level, you’re a bit lost,
unless, as you suggest, you use the sequences as nests
