Edit with precision

Take advantage of Adobe Premiere Pro’s ability to apply transitions to multiple clips. Move 
clips around easily and work with multiple edit points at once. Then preview how your 
rendered footage will look before actually rendering it.

Take advantage of editing improvements 

Apply transitions on any video track, and 

automatically apply default transitions to overlapping clips. Overwrite, as well as insert, 
clips in a single move by dragging and dropping them on a timeline. Remove a group of 
clips from one area—closing the open gap with a ripple delete—and insert them in 
another area in a single action. Select and trim multiple edit points at once. Copy and 
paste noncontiguous clip selections. View live updates in the Trim window, which shows 
an edit in progress as you’re adjusting the clip. Toggle between video-frame-accurate and 
audio-sample-accurate editing with a single click. For information on editing improve-
ments in Adobe Premiere Pro, see 

“Applying and controlling Standard effects” on 

page 244

“About the Effect Controls window” on page 237

“Removing parts of a 

sequence” on page 146

“Trimming clips in the Timeline window” on page 148

, and 

“Using 

the Trim window” on page 156

.

Render-free editing experience  

Play back full-resolution frames, including titles, transi-

tions, effects, motion paths, and color correction on two channels, on-screen or on an 
external video monitor—with no additional hardware support required. This new render-
free editing experience enables you to see exactly how your work will look, so you can 
make more rapid edit decisions and ultimately deliver files more quickly. For information 
on render-free editing, see 

“Previewing a sequence” on page 157

.

Work easily with digital video and export to DVD

Edit DV footage easily and export projects directly to DVD from Adobe Premiere Pro.

Enhanced DV device control  

Use the new scene-detection controls in Adobe Premiere 

Pro to divide raw DV footage into scene-based clips. Also create low-resolution, scene-
based clips for offline editing. Then, after assembling your rough cut, batch-capture full-
resolution versions of only the clips you need. For information on DV device control,  
see 

“Using device control” on page 67

.

Direct export to DVD  

Export projects directly and burn DVDs for distribution of high-

quality video content. For information on exporting to DVD in Adobe Premiere Pro,  
see 

“Exporting to DVD” on page 289
