creteSubSequence() keeps main sequence track effects - How to get defaults?

Hi. When i use this method, i would like that the track's "effects" of the main sequence get back to their default in the subsequence.

 

For example, if i have a track with "audio track keyframe", the subsequence keep this settings, resulting in a double effect applied in the main sequence. Same thing if there is an audio track mix and probably all other track effects.

 

Is there a specific method to get their default?

Does "get/setSequenceSettings()" restore them to default?

 

Thanks!

createSubsequence() doesn't do anything to the effects or keyframes applied, within the source sequence. There is no API for restoring any default values.

If in the main sequence i have edited the audio track volume (ie: -2db), in the subsequence i have the same edited audio track (-2db). So, when i go back and put the subsequence into the main sequence, i obtain a double edit, -4db.

Same thing if i apply to this audio track volume the keyframes, they are also present in the subsequence.

 

Or, if i lower a volume of an audio track with mixer panel, it will be lowered also in the subsequence, obtaining the same issue.

The behavior you've described sounds By Design; you get the same results if you were to create the subsequence using PPro's UI (instead of API), right?
