Make complex edits in one step using the advanced editing tools
professionals depend on. Trim and adjust footage with single
actions that would otherwise require multiple steps.
Clip replacing
Easily swap out clips in the timeline without having to
re-create settings. Replace any clip in the timeline with a new
clip that preserves the original clip's attributes. All effects
and eyframes are retained, and, if necessary, the new clip is
trimmed to fit the duration of the original one.
Powerful management of projects, sequences, and clips
RapidFind search
Type what you're looking for into the RapidFind search box and
see results instantly update as you type. RapidFind is available
in the Effects, Project, and Metadata panels and makes finding

ability to select any combination of sequences for trimming.
Per-sequence settings
Mix content even more freely in your project with different
editing and rendering settings for each sequence. Manage your
assets more easily by collecting all sequences into a single
project, and create multiple versions from HD masters quickly
using nested sequences of different settings.
Project panel column information in workspaces
Create workspace configurations using Project panel column
configurations that are optimized for the task at hand. For
example, set up different columns for logging versus editing.

playhead jumps to the end of a pasted clip so that subsequent
pasted clips are placed directly after it.
Subclip creation from the timeline
Create new subclips quickly and easily. Simply drag content
directly from the timeline to the Project panel.
Keyframe snapping in the Effect Controls panel
Place keyframes precisely within the Effect Controls panel. As
you move them, keyframes snap to sequence markers, the playhead,
clip edges, and other video or audio keyframes. This makes it
simple to align new keyframes with existing ones.
Vertical snapping in the timeline
Use vertical snapping to keep clips in sync when moving them
between tracks.

chapters in Adobe Premiere Pro, see those chapters in Encore,
and then update to the latest list with a single click.
Group clip transfer to Adobe After Effects CS4
Transfer groups of edited clips for motion graphics work in
Adobe After Effects® CS4 software using a single command. Adobe
Premiere Pro CS4 re-creates the structure of your clips in an
After Effects composition, and then imports the composition into
the timeline using Dynamic Link. From there, changes made in
After Effects are shown automatically in Adobe Premiere Pro,
enabling you to experiment with your motion graphics without
