Yes it's very annoying, I currently group everything when I want to apply effects to all elements together and it works

Premier pro version 23.3.0 allows Only Audio Nesting.

No, the workarounds suggested here don't work for me. I am using Premiere Pro 2022 (version 22.3.1). The created nested sequence if you open it, does contain the audio files as epxected but the original sequence will NOT display a single nested audio sequence as it does for the video tracks.

The workaround doesn't work for me as in if I go into the created Nested sequence that contains the audio, delete the video, so now I have a single nested sequence that just contains the audio clips. When I drag the nested sequence back onto the original sequence the original stack of audio clips displays on the original sequence, not a single nested clip containing the nested audio.

Lastly nested Video clips don't play in my program monitor, so I can't even play back the video files without audio. I think nesting in general needs a lot of work.

As a musician and videographer, this feature is absolutely essential. It's unbelievable to me that it's still not implemented as I would consider this basic functionality for a video editing suite. Similarly, video clips with multiple associated audio tracks should all be able to nest as one.

A workaround. I duplicated my sequence, called it audio nest, them deleted all the video from that and placed the audio in the video sequence timeline. Essentially a cumbersome form of nesting.

People have used the term "unprofessional" about Adobe's priorities and I've been saying that for years. The CS package you get for the annul fee is amazing, but the support and product, in many ways, is not Pro level and that's too bad.

How can we not have a true garbage matte effect with spline-able keyframes? Ballistics, soft edges or keyframes on wipes? Dissolves that go fro 0 to 100 rather than 20 to 80 then jump? To name just a few.

All these things have been standard in other editing packages for decades and repeatedly requested. Adobe has failed to address them so far. C'mon Adobe. Listen to the community. These would make the day to day use much more editor friendly.

Please please please allow us to nest audio! I have 4 cameras with 24 tracks of audio and have to keep all of the audio. Cut this sequences is insane. Please help!

Multiple audio tracks have nested for years.

It just looks like they don't. If you nest several clips, then go into the created sequence, all the audio clips are there. For some reason, though, Premiere doesn't create the nested sequence audio track when it does this.

They nest, but have to be on different tracks. So they do, but they don't.

Add audio nesting. Also allow the ability to select multiple audio key frames across clips on several tracks by lassoing. I work mainly in Avid for the networks— and not having these features in premiere certainly makes it “un pro”

Still doesn't work, there is a workaround (already mentioned by Sven Brencher):

> Audio is nested but it will not replace the Audio in the Sequence if there are clips on multiple tracks selected. So you have to drag in the Nested Sequence again to have the nested Audio as well.
