submix keyframes don't shift when insert edit is performed

I had sent all my music to a submix as I was using several stems for each music track. I mixed all the music on the whole seq by writing keyframes on the fader as it played through. I then wanted to make a shot longer after I had finished and came across this problem. The keyframes on the submix don’t ripple with the extending of a clip. I then needed to add a clock on the front of the timeline and the submix keyframes didn’t ripple and just started under the clock where the start of the seq had started before adding the clock. There must be a way of keeping the keyframes in sync?

    This is normal behavior for this type of track-based mixing. This type of automation is usually done at teh very, very, very last part of the post process just to avoid this very issue. They key it to use Clip-based mixing for as much of the edit as possible.

    Hey Paul,

    What you're seeing is expected behavior. Submix automation is timeline-based, so those keyframes don't ripple when you perform insert edits or extend clips. As a result, the automation stays at its original timecode instead of moving with the edit.

    If having submix automation ripple with timeline edits would improve your workflow, I'd encourage you to submit it as a feature request (or upvote an existing one) in the Premiere Pro Ideas forum:

    In the meantime, the safest workflow is to make editorial changes before writing submix automation whenever possible. Sorry for the hassle.


    Cheers,
