Make timeline more like Premiere Pro?

On Elements, the audio and video on the timeline are coupled, one right beneath the other. Is there any way to make it function more like the Premiere Pro timeline with audio and video completely separate?

Im just an anachronism. I like my complete, customizable and controllable Timelines, ála Pro. I did not use other PE versions before PE4, so do not know exactly when Adobe chose to move to the new, streamlined, sleek Timeline. However, I miss the old style, that gave me so much control. This is probably the biggest reason that I have not embraced PE (over my PP2), even for shorter Projects, like I had intended.
Now, I am not trying to sell one version, over another. I just like the way that PPs Timeline works and have grown to love and know its workflow. So much depends on what one is used to and how they like to work. I am just hoping that CS4 Pro does not go the way of PE, regardless of how nice it might appear.

  • Photoshop CS6: Dark user interface style [UI skin] like Premiere Pro or Lightroom?

    For Photoshop CS6, how about add option to set a dark user interface style [UI skin]  like Premiere Pro or Lightroom?  It's very helpful to be able to work on images in a dark interface because it enhances our eyes' perception of color.  Can this be possible in CS6?

    Actually, there is some value in changing the background color.
    Contrast of the image with surrounding gray values does affect your perception of tone and saturation in the image.
    So you want to view the image with a surround that comes close to the value that the final result will be viewed in.
    For print, that means a 50% gray or lighter surround (mimicking the world).
    For video that means something darker but not really black.
    And for movies you want a nearly black surround.
    Unfortunately, OS controls/widgets aren't designed to do that.  Premiere and AE managed it by creating all their own controls and not using OS controls.

  • Can you change Premiere Elements 13 timeline to act like Premiere Pro CS4?

    Hi there,
    I recently started using Premiere Elements 13 after previously having used Premiere Pro CS4 (both mac versions if that makes a difference). All is great but I have encountered one major difference which makes Elements 13 a bit of a pain and was wondering if it was changeable. Basically, when you alter the length of a clip that's touching up against another one they remain stuck together and everything else in the timeline shifts up accordingly. In Premiere Pro CS4 if you changed the length of a clip joined to another (where the two join) it would simply create a gap. Frankly, I find the latter a much better way of working. What I tend to use Premiere for on the whole is adding still images to a voice track rather than working with video clips with linked audio. I know this isn't exactly what Premiere is designed for but it worked so much better in CS4 and wondered if you could tweak Premiere Elements 13 to behave a bit more like CS4.
    Any help much appreciated!

    Hold down the Ctrl key as you shorten the duration of a clip using the mouse cursor. That should give you the gap that you seek. That works for Premiere Elements Windows. (I am strictly an Elements Windows user.)
    With your Premiere Elements Mac computer, try holding down the Command key as you shorten the duration of a clip using the mouse cursor.
    Please let us know if that worked for you.
    Thank you.

  • Timeline dead in Premiere Pro CC?

    I've been using Premiere Pro CS6 long enough to get used to it. Today, I downloaded the Premiere Pro CC trial to see how I like it. Well, it loads and plays clips in the preview monitor just file, but that's all folks!!  I am totally unable to drag any kind of clip/file/image/audio...anything onto the timeline!! When I try, the cursor icon just shows the circle with a line through it (I call it the 'nope, can't do that' icon). Also, the timeline just shows two empty tracks instead of the multiple tracks CS6 shows. This is on a pretty fast Win 7 machine, and the present Premiere CC setup is the default, as it was installed.
    Well, without a working timeline the program is pretty much useless. I'm sure it must be something I've overlooked, but what?    Thanks!

    Thanks for the tip! I was able to start a timeline with the file>new>sequence. Would have liked to use the New item button for this, but since the Media Browser is in a different window then the New item button, dropping clips and files to this button is a bit tricky.
    One other thing, CS6 allowed one to expand the tracks right on the timeline (which I notice in CC is not a fixed window like in CS6) to adjust audio volume or balance with keyframes). CC doesn't allow for expanded tracks, so how does one make these adjustments?
    I have and like After Effects CC, but after a few hours of working with Premiere CC, I want to go back to Premiere CS6. Have other people felt this way??           Thanks!

  • Doesn´t Radilal Blur Video effect exist more in Premiere Pro CC 2014?

    Hello everyone! 
       I am studying an Adobe Premiere Pro guide, it is based on an old version and, at one point he says to apply the radial blur effect video.
    The problem is: This effect is not where it should be, or no longer exists. Can anyone tell if it still exists? It was replaced ?   
    If not, how to simulate the same effect? Since all existing blur options in CC version does not do anything like the Radial Blur.
    Already,
    Thank you to all !

    The project was very large. Connected to 5 TB of media on a server, not local, or ext. hd.  I needed to "trim" the sequences to make them manageable to put on an Ext HD and mail around the world to different bureaus of our media company.  I opened the project manager and trimmed the first sequence and it worked fine.  All subsequent sequences ended in the same error. "Unknown error, please save and re-try." I tried changing the settings of the "trim" and nothing worked. I tried several different computer, still didn't work.  I tried saving the trimmed sequences to different HD's, servers, local desktops, etc. Nothing worked. Same Unknown Error.  I think it might have to do with audio that is in the sequence that is not being used in conjunction with the associated video.  But, that is crazy. All sequences include this type of editing. But, the first sequence that worked didn't. SO, maybe that is it.
    Please fix this problem because I still need to trim these sequences and I'm on a deadline of December 1, 2014! 
    Thank you,

  • How do I shorten the length of the timeline in Adobe Premiere Pro?

    This is my first time using Adobe Premiere Pro.  I created a slideshow of images with music. The entire length with all of the images ends up being around 40 minutes.  The length of the entire timeline is over 10 hours.  I had finished my slideshow and exported it in a .mov format.  The exported file ended up being a 10 hour long video with the first 40 minutes being the actual slideshow and the rest of it was blank.  That file ended up being about 140 GB in size.  All that I want to do is to cut off the rest of the time after the first 40 minutes.  PLEASE HELP!!!!

    Set In and Out Points or the Work Area Bar to the Head and Tail of your edit.
    The when you Export..use either of those as a setting to tell the exporter what  to export.  There is a Menu for it in AME.

  • How can I make Illustrator stills for Premiere Pro sequences?

    So far, when I create Illustrator stills (in this case, consisting of type) and import them into a Premiere Pro sequence, only the type itself ends up on screen. It's almost as if I've selected just the type to be used and the rest of the canvas has disappeared. Thanks.

  • What product that works just like Premiere Pro but it's for a 32bit laptop? My comp doesn't run on 64bit and I really want to use Premiere pro.

    Please answer~

    You are out of luck. Premiere Pro will only run on 64 bits.
    You could consider Premiere Elements.

  • Preview Timeline Issues in Premiere Pro CC

    Hi,
    I am wokring on my feature film and since the last 2-3 days I have notice my PREVIWE RENDERS on the timeline stagger. When i give for rendering, the render just keeps increasing, the number of frames increase...sort of like a variable frame render...and just goes on and on !
    I uninstalled Premiere CC and installed, changed hard drives. Still the problem persists !
    Please suggest what to do !
    Thanks

    To get the fix for this bug, you will need to update. But I suspect you don't absolutely need the fix for the bug as there are workarounds. There's probably just a small number of problem spots in the sequence that are causing the issue. Perhaps only one. So render the sequence in segments defined by In/Out points until you find a problem spot. Then simply skip that point.
    All of which begs the question as to whether you really need to render at all. In case you're not aware, doing so is entirely optional for purposes of smoother playback. If your computer is powerful enough, it may not be necessary.

  • Grey area in timeline area in Premiere Pro CS5.5

    Can someone please tell me what the greyed-out area means in the bottom of the time ruler at the top of the Timeline  panel
    John Q.

    For that "thinner harder In & Out," I think that you might be referring to the WAB (Work Area Bar), which has slightly different uses. This ARTICLE points out some aspects of the WAB, which can be useful for several operations. Please ignore the old screen-caps, as the GUI is much more streamlined now - however the WAB still looks about the same, and functions the same.
    The Help File also has a lot of very useful info on the WAB (and with more up-to-date images... )

  • Does Encore CS4 has Autosave function  like Premiere Pro

    I don't seem to find about it. Recently I had a project that suddenly lost it's menu and so was replaced by a template. It was fidly an busy so I would love to get it back without redoing it. (Butons, links and all)
    Thank you for your time
    MM
    PS I just found an entry from 2006 that does not answer the question but suggest to have this feature in the "wish List"!
    I think I'm going to redo my menu!

    Say that again, I finally fix the project to encode and probably would have done better starting from scratch too. I find the size confusing. I noticed the blue line seems to be the size of the project. I added back my HD video clip and it seems to show 37 GB. But this time I won't hold my breath to long and "que sera, sera" I may have to do it all over again! it just a shame to waste so much real estate. 12, 15 GB is a lot especially when one think about DVDs. I may need to think about finding appropriate BR size
    I found the above in a "recovered session! But today I have to report that I have not made any progress:
    I noticed whilst burning with imgburn there are a lot write Retries (440, and I'm barely 2% complete. I must admit I have no idea how all this works - I can see the buffer at 100% and the device buffer line flicking to 100%
    I just lowered the writing speed that was X8 down to X2 (here we are at 3% with 550 write retries).
    I was quite hopeful with the setting to DL 50GB that should have been the problem.But!
    According to imgburn, the source shows 35316,957,184 bytes so it should fit onto 50gb.
    I know all this is very complex and I'm not up to it to understand the whole process - yet knowing I have had one successful burn and in the past I had not trouble with DVD burning - I should get somewhere!
    Searching more for an answer I found a 2009 post that talks about BD DL and suggests each layer will only take 25 gb and therefore we should try to have two parts no more than 25 gb in the project to burn on a 50gb DL BD? Have you heard of such thing?
    Well It's almost 7hours and the burning is 96% - Since I have no changed anything I don't expect too much about this session.

  • The Bridge UI still looks like .... / weird gray gradients - Make it more like PS.

    Oh and the easier way to removing the dupe frames was just to drop it to 19.984, set (nested) comp advanced settings to 'preserve framerate when nested' and watch for the occasional rounding error when back in a 29.97 container composition.  It would be nice to be able to specify 29.976...
    In any case the missing frame needs to be replaced, not removed.  The visual jump i that gap actually looks to be closer to 2 frames when motion of objects is estimated by hand.
    Also (as I think I mentioned) other clips seem to have even further oddities.
    The reality is that I can actually create smoother motion by doing a lot of hand massaging of the footage (scaling previous frames in simple pans, hand-rotoscoping/masking/compositing in sections of frames around missing ones to synthesize motion in onscreen talent & background objects, things tracked across the screen by the camera and so on.
    But that's a heck of a lot of work and probably beyond what's achievable at present I suspect...

  • UI builder: using the palette is painfully slow compared to LabVIEW: any plans to make that more like LabVIEW?

    It's especially difficult on smaller resolution screens.

    Yes to the latter questions. Think in terms of # of clicks to find a palette item is my high level observation...
    Once multiple palette sub menu's are expanded, there is an additional requirement to scroll to find the item. 
    Having the palette via right click is a natural progression from LabVIEW, and very common use.
