Shortcut to REPLACE lumetri colour correction prior one, two or three clips on the timeline

[Guest]

An absolutely essential tool for any serious colour grading: You need the ability to quickly copy and replace the colour correction from one, two or three clips prior via shortcut. Especially when you alter the colour temperature it takes SO much time to always dial in the same colour temperature/tint for EVERY clip shot under the same lighting conditions. And oftes its about ten clips in a row or more shot with the same colour temperature. Any serious colour correction suite like davici resolve (or the former adobe speedgrade) have this function. Why did adobe remove it?? I have to remove the old lumetri manually, then copy the grade from another clip and paste it manually EVERY time. This alone is a reason to roundtrip just for colour grading to resolve. PLEASE add just those three shortcuts: "Use lumetri colour settings from one, two, three clips prior"! I dont want do add a SECOND lumetri correction, I need to REPLACE the existing correction on the clip.

Here is another Idea from @Media Mogul 

Having been a colourist on Media Composer / Symphony in a previous life, I really miss the colour correction memories (pictured below). The way they work is that when you have graded your shot, you would hold down the ALT key and select one of the 8 memories. The next time you want to apply that grade, you just press that memory button to recall the grade. Such a time saver! In Premiere, doing a source clip grade can help with multicam edits. Toggling a LUT can help others. For the work I do with mismatched cameras on outdoor field shoots, a copy, paste, tweak workflow works best for me. Premiere allows you to save Lumetri effect presets to your effect panel, but I find this slows me down. I tend to find a similar shot from the same scene / camera / lighting condition and copy & paste that lumetri effect to use as my starting point. If Premiere would allow you to copy all of the lumetri effects on a clip (because often you have a few to correct different elements of the shot) and save them to Avid like clipboard memories... and if Tangent could let us map the memory saves and recalls to our conntrol surface buttons.... game changer.

Upvoted the Avid CCXN memories, but even more useful - not limited to 8 - Is Avid's effect organization. I could grade a shot, drag the effect icon to a bin and there's the effect as a bin item. Can save, name, copy, move to another project. It even highlighted the effect name when dragged to the bin, for immediate renaming. I could build a bin of ccxn effects, named for angles, cameras, fixes, all ready to drag onto the next clip as needed.

Avid Symphony allows you to apply the same grade to all clips from the same source...be that a tape or master clip or etc. There are many relationships you can set or establish to have a single correction apply to all clips that share the relationship...like everything from camera 1 or etc. You can also merge color corrections from one sequence to another with a single click. And use presents like already mentioned here. Within the color corrector you can define what is thought of as shadows, midtones, and highlights and the rest of your corrections are based on setting these ranges. And nudge points on curves with cursors or numeric input.

Premiere just feels like a pile of junk...in the color corrector, with audio, and etc. Adding features without any real consideration of the usability and quality professional used to demand.
