Multicam tracks

Hi,

 

I sync my files with multicam but I find some mystery. 

 

First : If I create a "single timecode" multicam source sequence with differents camera angles, this will work. BUT If in an other time I do the same thing to create each multicam for each file, Premiere Pro doesn't care. Sometimes I could have several files for one sound on an unique multicam and each file is on a different track while they are the same camera label. 

Two : If I create for exemple a multicam preset with 23 sound tracks to be sure to have all of my sounds from differents cameras and at the end, the multicam contains only 10 tracks, even if I change that, Premiere doesn't care and will stay on 23 tracks when I will use it in a sequence.

Three : In my multicam of 23 sound tracks but for real 10 tracks, If I delete empty tracks and even change the order of my sounds, Premiere doesn't care and will show me the order of sound's creation when I will use it in a timeline. BUT if I use the flatten option to see the exact ting inside my multicam, this will show me what I decide.

Are the any solutions ?

Correct answer PaulMurphy

I'll go through each of your questions below to help clarify how multicam source sequences work in Premiere Pro:

  1. Single Timecode:
    I'm not entirely sure what you're describing here—could you provide more detail?

  2. Sequence Presets:
    When using Create Multi-Camera Source Sequence with a sequence preset, Premiere Pro doesn’t adapt the preset to the media. The audio channel count, frame rate, resolution, and sample rate all remain as defined in the preset. I recommend using the Automatic option to better match your source media.

  3. Audio Channel Setup:
    Avoid deleting tracks within the multicam sequence, as this only removes input tracks. To adjust output channels:
    1. Select the multicam source sequence in the Project panel.
    2. Go to Clip > Modify > Audio Channels.
    3. Set the number and order of output channels.
