Primiere V 23,
Laptop, Win 10
I'm editing a clip shot with an external recorder.
To synchronize the camera's soundtrack with two additional soundtracks, I arranged them in the timeline and synchronized.
After the synchronization phase, I want to start the rush phase when all sections within numbered Bins
because It's very inconvenient to work with dozens of clips at the beginning of the timeline.
The problem: when I move the synced clip and tracks into bins they switch into the "merged file" format and I lose the ability to process the sound of each of the tracks later.
so- How do you overcome the "merged files" transformation when moving parts of the timeline into bins?

I wonder if multicam would be the better workflow.

I don't see how it can help me now

You put a camera with audio, and two separate audio files on a sequence, and used the Synchronize option. Is that correct?
If so, that's something that occurs on that sequence. It's not a 'bin' thing. It's not a new clip or anything. It's just several things conjoined on that sequence.
You say they become 'merged files' ... to make sure I 'see' what you are, explain your exact steps, and maybe add a screengrab or two drag/dropped onto your text reply area.

shooting with one camra and one external recorder
on Primiere timeline > mark highlighted clip + matched synced voice over part from trak below
>drag 3 of the items (video +linked original sound + voice over sound) to a Bin
> while transfering into Bin the 3 items become "merged file".
when I drage the "merged file" into timeline I can't unmerged them, that's the problem

Ahh ... but I still don't understand why you're doing this ... process or whatever. What's the point or reason?

I want to edit clips in a certain order.
In the first step, I need to sync the sound from the camera to the external recorder.
To synchronize I need to arrange all the dozens of cliips on the timeline.
After all synchronized, I want to clean the timeline and edit synced clip that are in BIN- not in the timeline.
If you have a more convenient and shorter process, feel free to offer.

That sounds like exactly what the multicam process is built to do though ...
Although, do you have one long audio file and many 'cuts' of camera shots? Short segments?

one or five long audio and many camera short shots.

If the camera shots have audio, Premiere will match them to the main audio file, and will assume you want the separate audio as the main one of the multicam.

Thanks, Niel,
my problem was:
when I move the synced clip and tracks into bins they switch into the "merged file".
do you know how to disable, or work around this automatic feature?

Are you referring to the 'multiclip' Premiere makes in the multicam process? Sort of a clip kind of? With it's own icon style in the bin?
If so, the original files still exist as separate items in the Project file also. If you have the option of put synced items into a bin, it creates another bin and moves them there. Some like that, as it shows what clips are in each different multicam.
But some want all clips to remain in their original bin.
