Reorder / Rearrange Video and Audio Tracks

Come on... 4 years since the request. This should be basic.

I used to use this feature of being able to rearrange video and audio tracks in Vegas all the time, but somehow this is not a thing in Premiere.

Wasting time on copy and pasting clips from one track to another instead of being able to rearrange them sucks.

It's gone years since this request was submitted, please make it happen devs!

I can't believe that such a basic function is still not integrated after so many years.

This needs to happen! I come from a Logic Pro background this feature is so helpful!
I have come across a bug in Premiere Pro when audio tracks decided to just mute themselves, and the only workaround is to create a new audio track and copy the audio clips onto that. The problem comes when I have to send sequences to airspeed...our workflow requires atmos on track 2, but I can't simply move this audio track up in the audio track layers to where it needs to be! Such a simple feature would be a saviour!

Sad that we don't have this yet. Feels like 1904.

I would like to add my vote to this. It is possible to do this in an extremely clumsy way: create a new track in the position you want to move the existing track to, use Shift-Track Select to select the contents of the track you want to move, copy the track and paste it into the new empty track (be sure to set the track targeting so it lands on the new track (alas, track targeting is another very clumsy "feature"), and delete the old track. Even though there is a way to do this, the interface needs to be fixed. Simple, obvious things like this should be simple and obvious - that is rule number one of a good interface. Not doing this sort of interface upkeep will slowly but surely make Premiere Pro a clunky, out-of-date program that existing users find increasingly annoying and new users avoid (if simple things are a pain in the butt, and the company has given up on making the program friendly to users, you would be a fool not to look for alternatives). Also, many of your new users are students, and it is getting harder to explain to them why such an expensive program can't do simple things simply when every free phone app in the world can.This sort of neglect is a shame, in many ways Premiere Pro is a great editing program and it has a truly great ecosystem around it (After Effects, Photoshop, Illustrator, Audition, Media Encoder).

I wonder - between Premiere's millions of users, over years of usage - how many millions of hours are collectively wasted by users due to this lack of a basic feature, let alone Premiere's other shortcomings.

I also wonder why companies like Adobe aren't held - or don't hold themselves - liable for this colossal waste of time, creative energy and money.

Seriously? This still isn't implemented after I asked to have this functionality back in 2009!? Holy crap, Adobe, this is such a simple thing to implement and it's a function available in almost every one of your other products.

We should be able to drag and drop tracks to reorder them! It ruins the workflow to have to copy and paste track elements into new tracks simply to change their order!

I'm STUNNED to find the internet has at least 13 years of complaints for Adobe to implement a simple Move Track Up or Move Track Down like their FREE competitor DaVinci Resolve. Unbelievable.

Just voted. Wish I'd known about this an hour ago when they sent me a survey.
