Adding effects directly to video layers (Audio Track Mixer for Video layers)

Being able to add effects directly to a layer which makes all clips on that layer affected would be a huge time saver.
If you have a multicamera sequence with 3 different cameras where you want to add same grade to all clips on track 1, track 2 and track 3 seperately.

Or even being able to make adjustment layers only affect the clips on the layer directly beneath would also be amazing... (like in photoshop)

Video Track Mixer would be AMAZING
Also while you're at, the audio track mixer probably needs an overhaul to bring it into the modern age.

Exactly as Dominic says. For example, I am interested in masking a clip, but only the clip on a specific track, but the mask is applied to all videos on all tracks. In Photoshop you can apply an adjustment to all layers or just to the next layer below the adjustment. This last detail is what we request to be implemented in Premiere.

John, "adjustment layers affect all the tracks below them" is literally the issue this suggestion is trying to address. There are many situations where it would be useful for an effect to apply to everything on a track, but none of the tracks below it. Color correcting multicam cameras is one, I'm particularly interested in it for reframing graphics, but I'm sure there are many other situations where being able to apply effects to an entire track would come in handy.

Does this not already exist for color correction? All you have to do is add an adjustment layer above your clips in the timeline and it will affect everything below it.

I'm not a regular user of Premier but I am an expert in photoshop, I can't understand why something so simple in photoshop is not implemented in Premier, it's ridiculously absurd.

I would like to emphasize that it is necessary to preserve the possibility of an adjustment layer in its current state and introduce an adjustment layer specifically affecting the track below. Because sometimes it is convenient to work, as it is now - to influence all the layers below on the timeline. But, very often it is necessary to apply an adjustment layer specifically to one video sequence located under it. As on the principle of Photoshop. That would be impressive.
