-enabled
Camera 1
Camera 2
etc etc
what is this - can anyone shoot me a link to a tutorial or esplain it to me..?

The technique that you're describing is different to the one I use for multi-camera edits. I have a background in audio production so my immediate assumption to edit with multi cams was to bring each camera to it's own track and spend a few minutes lining them up. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vWKcvkPx874
I left that part out -- sorry. Part of bringing your footage into a source sequence (video 1, video 2, etc.) is that you then have to sync (line up) the various camera feeds. PPro offers several ways to do this. More than I want to try to describe in a thread like this, and it is explained well enough in the help system (with links to on-line tutorials that show you exactly how to do it).
Adobe has also added Prelude to the mix -- as a more full featured way to ingest footage from multiple cameras and sysc that footage. It can act as a front end to PPro. Should make multi-camera work easier and more intuitive, but I've not used it yet.

Probably. You can't run the multi-camera editor unless you have a place to put the results. Which is why you have to have the nested sequence.

Matching cameras in cs6 prem pro.

Canon hfg10, 60d, hfm56, i belive in fcp you can click a button and it matches all camera colours, can this be done in cs6 prem pro.

There's no such button in Premiere Pro, but there is a shot matching tool in Speedgrade CC:
http://helpx.adobe.com/speedgrade/using/whats-new.html
It's not a hardware-referenced correction so it doesn't actually match 'cameras' - instead it looks at the spectra of each shot and tries to work out the differences between tints on shadows/midtones/highlights. You can't feed it a GoPro sweeping landscape and an Alexa interior headshot, but if the two frames depict roughly the same content it does quite a good job. You can then save the correction data for each camera as a 'look', and back in Premiere Pro CC that look can be applied to all the other bits of footage via the Lumetri effect.
If you want an absolute 'reset' of each clip back to a reference standard, again you'll need to use Speedgrade; this time with the aid of a Macbeth chart. That workflow is a lot more complicated as it was only designed to work with cinema hardware. There is a hacky workaround using Lightroom and the X-Rite plugin:
Export a still frame showing a Colorchecker card,
Import to Lightroom as a DNG file,
Use Lightroom & X-Rite to make a DNG calibration profile,
'Develop' the still frame so the chips are now accurate (and set your expoure and luma end points),
At this point you could save the develop preset and apply it to other video files in Lightroom's Library module but you'd have to transcode your footage and Lr's video export options are limited to say the least.
If you want to use the 'calibration' back in Premiere, it gets fun:
Send the developed DNG to Photoshop and export as a TARGA file,
Import the TARGA to Speedgrade CC, then shot-match your video of the Colorchecker to this still frame (here's where you lose a lot of accuracy as the shot matcher isn't comparing each color chip, only the RGB curves),
Save the correction data as a .look,
Apply back in Premiere with the Lumetri effect.

Need help with Multi-cam editing in Premiere Pro CC/7.0

I've been using 6.0 for a while now, and had to install 7.0/cc, but now I can't find where to record multi-cam edits. I've already lined up my clips and created a new sequence and enabled multi-cam, I just don't see the Multi-Cam Editor. Please help!

Hey!
I found the record-button in the programm panel. But now it won't let me hit record. The button is disabled (see screenshot).
What can I do about it?
If I just hit play and then change the angles in the source window, Premiere won't record those edits. Only thing it does is it keeps the whole clip in this one angle.

Poor multi-camera performance in Premiere Pro CS6

I've been trying to edit my camera footage using multi-camera window and the playback is extremely choppy and slow in the viewer, so I pretty much cannot use it. Any ideas? Are there certain settings I can tweak?
I did a search and it seems like the CPU/GPU would be the bottlenecks but I believe my machine is pretty good: i7 2700k with SATA III SSD, GTX 480 and 16GB of RAM.
Thank you in advance for your help.

What driver are you on for your GTX 480?
I'm aware of a number of things that have been reported as causing choppy playback
Playback Resolution and Paused Resolution being set to full. If that's the case, try dialing back to 1/2 or even 1/4.
A high number of layers. How many are in your multicam sequence? Also, do you have any cases of a sequence containing a nested sequence that in turn contains a nested sequence?
The type of video--some are more resource intensive to decode than othters. What kind are you working with (codec and wrapper)?
Using multiple graphics cards
Effects. Which ones are you using, if any?
A slow hard drive, or using an external without a fast enough interface. (from the info you provided, that doesn't sound like a likely culprit)
It might be worth downloading the trial of Premiere Pro CC to see if performance is better in the new version. I'm not trying to sell you on subscribing to Creative Cloud. It would just be good to know if you find better performance in CC.

Help with multi camera editing in Premiere Pro

Ok I'm new...so bear with me.
I am editing a basic interview shot on two cameras and cutting away to some still images.
The rushes are 4 lots of film about 10 mins in length.
I inputted the footage from the two cameras and created a new sequence for each using the multi camera audio synchronisation method (which worked great).
So how do I go about creating my edit? Something tells me I'm going about it in the wrong way.
Do I need to create my edit using single camera shots and then create multi camera sequences for each individual clip? It seems so laborious as its all already synced up for two cameras.
I am a bit confused about creating clips v creating sequences.
I'm sorry if this is making some of you cringe :/ ....but I really can't find any help in online tutorials.
I need basic step by step instruction.

humm, sounds like your 4 lots do not overlap in time, and that there is space between each lot. So would that be 4 multi-camera sequences with the two cameras?
If so, why even multicamera edit that? and just set up to Video tracks, sync the audio and opacity keyframe between the two tracks.
Good to get your multi-camera edit workflow going proper though.
Sounds like you need to multi-camera edit your 4 sequences separately, unless you sync each lot with its corresponding clip and put on the same timeline, then do one sequence and one multi-camera edit

Multi-camera real-time editing skips the main video window ahead about a minute since update.

I'm working on a 2-camera edit, which I've done numerous multi-camera edits on this machine before with no problem, but now when I am playing back the footage with the multi-camera window and select the other camera, the footage in the main window (the one that shows the footage going on the timeline) jumps ahead about a minute. It doesn't matter which camera is choosen, it causes either to jump ahead about a minute in that main window making it almost impossible to edit.
The footage doesn't jump ahead in the smaller, individual camera windows on the left, just the main window. I'm not 100% sure, but I believe this problem just started occuring since the most recent update to Premiere Pro CC. I installed that update last night and wasn't having this problem prior to that.
How can I remove the most recent update to test this theory?
Specs:
Premiere Pro CC 7.2.0 (46)

2TB RAID 0 (Storage)

Kendall,
Great video showing exactly what you're experiencing. Thanks! Wow, something definitely seems severely wrong when nothing has changed on your machine except the version of PPr. Just a couple random thoughts (that probably won't make a difference):
1. Are you using Multi-cam Clips (i.e. created the way most Adobe tutorials teach you to create them), or are you using a Nested Sequence with Multi-cam Enabled (i.e. the way most on this forum would recommend)?
2. Does life get better when you exit Dropbox completely (or if you uninstall it)?
3. Do you have other items, like Dropbox, running? Close them all?
4. Does the same thing happen with different kinds of footage formats?
5. What version of Anti-virus? Try turning it completely off?
Again, you've probably considered the last two, but if not, it's the first thing I might try.
For what it's worth, I'm running CC 7.1 on Windows 7 64-bit and I'm not experiencing this issue. Not that it's ideal, but I performed the same test you show above while I was running Microsoft Outlook (a few emails open and 3 reminders), Chrome (about 15 instances with 2 or 3 tabs each). Also, background programs running: Microsoft OneNote (desktop version), Bluetooth and WiFi running, Spyder3 monitor calibration utility, CineForm Status viewer (a constantly running service of GoPro Studio) and Webroot Secure Anywhere. Even under these quick and dirty testing conditions, multi-cam is working great for me in 7.1 (I use Nested Sequences; not Multicam-clips). I had a real problem back in July/August that may have been brought about by using Multi-cam clips. I switched to using Nested Sequences, instead, and I haven't had that type of issue since.
I hope there is something helpful for you in all of that.
Best luck!

Audio targeting in Multi Camera edits Premiere 5.5

I am editing 6 days worth of a 3 camera multi camera set up from a seminar I shot last month. I am using Premiere Pro 5.5.
I shot the class with the speaker mic'ed with 2 wireless lapel mics: one mic going into Cam 3 left channel, and one going into Cam 2 right channel; the open channel on both catching ambient audio via camera mics. The thought here was I would have some redundancy in the event one mic popped out due to battery issues, or interference, and still have an audio channel to sync to with PluralEyes.
Camera 1 was a wide shot of the front of room, and had 4 choir mics directed at the audience (to pick up questions and such) and one shotgun focusing on the front where the speaker stood (again, for redundancy) running into a mixer, and then into Cam 1 right and left channels.
In Premiere, I line up all the video shots with PluralEyes (or manually) and then nest that sequence into a new multi cam sequence and begin editing.
When nesting the video and audio into a new sequence and turning multicamera editing on, I get the one track of nested video, and the one track of audio.
My issue is how to get the cleaner audio of the instructor, which is on either CAM 2 or 3 (with the lapel mics), onto the track of CAM 1, which is the only track I am able to hear when doing multi cam edits. If I simply copy the instructor audio onto track 1 in the 'source' sequence, I lose the audience replies and sound. But I don't know how to mix other channels onto the main track of the parent sequence (source).
I have worked around this by copying the audio from track 2 or 3 onto track 1 in the original (not nested) sequence and that has worked and I could keep on editing. But now, I need to do a group discussion portion, and need the audio from track 1 as well as the others and I am not sure how to mix them into the main audio track that the multicam process requires.
I hope I am clear in my explanation. In essence, how do you get a mix of tracks to show up onto track 1, the only audio track that seems to be able to be read by the multicam feature in Premiere 5.5?
Many thanks!!
Mark

Since I didn't want to ask a stupid question, I have been trying to do what
you suggested below, but I am not meeting with success (which means I am
doing it wrong :o)
I have made my edits in the multi Camera sequence I created and used the
Multi Cam "enabled" setting (labeled this sequence "Multi"), and then
placed the original multiple camera and tracks sequence (labeled
'source' which was first lined up and synced) into the video 2 track in the
multi cam sequence.
So now I have 2 tracks of the original "Source" sequence in the "multi"
sequence: one cut into shots and one uncut from the original sequence.
But, only the audio is coming in from the first track, even though the
tracks are all activated in the original sequence (nothing muted).
I know I am close, but not sure what I am doing wrong, and the audio from
the tracks is important for the final product.
Thanks again!

Multi-Camera Monitor Option Missing

Hello, Please help.... I just downloaded the CS6 Premeire Pro and I don't have the Multi-camera monitor in my window tab... Can you tell me if I have to do to get that option?

Create a new Sequence and add your clips to their tracks.
Sync them up, then nest that into a second Sequence.
Right click that Nested Sequence and select Multi-Camera > Enable.
Then:
I just downloaded the CS6 Premeire Pro...
Be sure to update to the current version (CS6.0.5).

Create Multi-Camera Source Sequence Options Box Problem in CS6

Hello there; it seems in my CS6 i dont the complete box as the below:-
i only have in points, Out points and Time codes ( I dont have the Audio and the remain box) as the above.
Is anyone able to en-light me? as i have to do Multicam project as as possible
Regards & Thanks

that seems to be exclusive to the CC version. so you would either have to upgrade or find a work around. you can manually sync the footage using markers or in points, or if doing this alot and you dont want to upgrade might look at pluraleyes.

Multi-cam stopped working CC 2014

So the multi-cam portion of project has mostly been working, until today. Now 2nd cam (video layer two in nested sequences) will only display black. Unable to select the black camera angle as well. In the main sequence, the nested sequences have multi-camera enabled, as does the program monitor. I can still manually select the 2nd camera by right clicking on the nested sequence clip and checking 2nd camera, however that doesn't actually make a cut (just changes entire clip) and also doesn't respect the "audio follows video (unchecked)" option as selected in the multi-camera program monitor.
Is this a known issue or have I completely missed something obvious?
timeline monitor, just fyi

Hmm... so far multi-cam is working in newly created projects since this arose in the project referenced above. So I would guess it's possible it's due to my mistake somewhere along the way. But haven't figured it out yet.
If anyone's had the problem with the black screen and loss of functionality, I'd love to know if it was a simple accidental click or bad setting.

Multi-cam edit issues with multiple DSLR clips

Hello,
Working in CC. I have 2 camera angles that were filmed with 2 DSLRs, and mic'd audio that was recorded into a Zoom H4N. Audio recording never stopped, but due to the nature of DSLRs, the 2 cameras would stop recording every 12 +/- minutes. In this end, I have:
Camera 1 - 16 clips
Camera 2 - 17 clips
Zoom H4N - 1 track
When using the multi-cam source sequence option, it understandably thinks each clip is a new camera/angle. However, that's not very helpful for me when I have 17 angles (15 of which are blank) showing up in the program monitor. Any suggestions on how to better tackle this dilemma?
Thank You.

Thanks, Mark. Appreciate the quick response. After messing around, I combined your method with PluralEyes (seemed less tedious that syncing 17 clips manually). There might be a faster/easier way, but this is what I did, in case any one is curious (sounds more tedious than it actual is):
1. Select cam 1 clip 1, cam 2 clip 1 and external audio in the Browser.
2. Left-click, "create Multi-Camera Source Sequence." Two angles and audio are now in a multi-cam sequence. Rename as Multicam_Source_Sequence
3. Create new sequence, called Sequence_01 and open in timeline.
3. Excluding cam 1 clip 1 and cam 2 clip 1, drag all remaining clips of cam 1 to V1, all remaining cam 2 clips to V2, and single external audio to A3 into Sequence_01 timeline.
4. Launch Sequence_01 into PluralEyes 3. Sync and Export.
5. Open PluralEyes' "Sequence_01_synced" (not "Sequence_01_synced Replaced") in timeline.
6. Find a good marker point toward the beginning of the audio where it has synced cam 1 clip 2 and cam 2 clip 2. Cut at that point.
7. Copy all video tracks (exclude audio tracks).
8. Find Multicam_Source_Sequence and open in timeline (un-nested, so that all tracks are revealed).
9. Manually find the same audio marker point where you cut in Sequence_01_synced. Place playhead directly at cut point.
10. Paste video clips. All tracks are now synced in a multi-cam sequence.
From here, it's the usual steps for preparing multi-cam editing, like you mentioned.
11. Create new sequence, called Multicam_Working_Sequence. Open in timeline.
12. Make sure nesting button is turned on in timeline.
13. Drag Multicam_Source_Sequence into Multicam_Working_Sequence.
14. Right-click the nested sequence>Multi-Camera>Enable.
15. Enable Multi-camera view in Program Monitor's panel menu.
Voila! Took me awhile, but this works.And no 17 angles popping up in the program monitor. Let me know if you'd add (or remove) anything. Thanks, again!

Premiere Pro Multi-Cam Angles on External Monitor

On Mac OS 10.10.3 with a Blackmagic Intensity Pro and Premiere Pro CC 8.2...
Is there a way to show multi-cam angles on an external monitor connected to the intensity via HDMI? Enabling "multi-cam" in my timeline only shows the angles on my computer, not the external monitor. The external monitor only shows the active angle.
The feature is available in FCP7 with the click of a button --> show multicam angles.

One editor's huge oversight is another editors yawn, of course. But for those like yourself doing much multi-cam with clients looking over their shoulder, yes, this would be a biggie. And you'll not find any disagreement about wanting it. So ... how about filing a bug/feature report about this? The teams actually do quantify these over time, and the bean counters look at these numbers as part of the logic of where they allow budget for changes/fixes to be allocated. So the more filed the better chance we'll get something like this changed.

Premiere Pro CC multi camera sync

I have a problem here: When trying to create a multi-camera-source file. I have two cameras, with audio from the camera and a .wav file from my zoom recorder. The .wav file has been adjusted in Audition CS6
Premiere pro cc sync's all the camera audio and video just fine, it creates a multi-camera-source nested file , but the .wav file from my zoom is out of sync despite there being a 'very' audible hand-clap on all the tracks ...
This would be a great feature if it worked.
Any ideas why this might happen and any ideas for solutions.

HI Mark,
Hope you don't mind me bringing this up here but I also had an issue with Syncing clips with new multicam feature. Mine was slightly different though in that often we film with two cameras and a Zoom H4N recording audio.
Often we will stop and start the cameras but then sync using audio waveform with the always recording zoom H4N. In Plural Eyes this would sync great and all the camera shots would stay in one video track in the timeline (i.e. the one assigned to that camera). However, using Adobe Sync option it made a new video track for each shot from each camera!! I had about 40 new video tracks to sort through and the sync hadn't worked.
Is there a way to enable all the shots from one camera to stay on the one track when syncing via Adobe?
Cheers for any help.
Best wishes,
Alex
