I’ve has some pretty fussy ProRes media come my way lately as well…
Out of curiosity, is the media full raster (1920×1080) or non-square (1280×1080)?
I finally had to transcode the media I received as PPro would get particularly fussy when running it…black on the PGM panel instead of the image in pause…poor playback performance, etc…

Are the resulting files significantly different sizes?

Aged Film has quite a few parameters including gate weave and alignment.
It might have been another plug, but I’m confident Aged Film could create that effect.

Looks like it could be “Aged Film” from Digieffects Damage.

FCP didn’t invent everything.
If I had to move from Premiere Pro to Final Cut at this point, I’m sure the logic would seem elusive as well.
Adobe has made many changes in Premiere Pro to accommodate FCP users over the last several versions (far more than Apple might have made if the reverse migration were happening I’d guess)…
Lumetri is the color engine in SpeedGrade…inside PPro it’s not a color correction plug, it’s the LUT carrier to store sets of SpeedGrade adjustments (and you can create your own as most users do…)

I’d use the titler to make a black rectangle that was wider than the screen and place it top and bottom when you want the crop and keyframe their motion to pull them out.
The other stuff is cropping with mattes.

Lumetri crap?
Hmmm…take a deep breath, Flavio…
Arbitrary separated gain controls like FCPs 3 way corrector aren’t in Adobe’s corrector.
However, an integrated input levels control right below the color wheels control the highlight, gamma and blacks with three sliding controls, which control the grayscale of the image as a unit.
You want the middle (gamma) control for raising/lowering the midtones.

Is the timeline 24fps?
If so, the conversion math will be ugly.
You could take the 15 fps footage and interpolate it to 24 if audio isn’t an issue.

in preferences, you can set up the default treatment for stereo audio to be dual mono…then the stereo track would come to the timeline as two mono tracks.
Is that what you’re looking for?

Unfortunately, there really isn’t a way to do this.
What we need in these cases is a master format template…almost like Power Point.
Sorry man.
