To copy and paste markers in Premiere Pro, you need to enable a specific setting before pasting. Here's how:
Copying and Pasting Sequence Markers
The process involves enabling a specific option that allows markers from one sequence to be copied and pasted into another.
Steps to Follow:
-
Enable Marker Copying:
- Go to the "Markers" menu at the top of the Premiere Pro interface.
- Locate and enable the option: "Copy and Paste Includes Sequence Markers". This is crucial for the markers to be included during the copy and paste operation.
-
Copy Markers
- Select the clips that contain the markers you want to copy.
- Use the standard copy command (Ctrl+C on Windows or Cmd+C on macOS).
-
Paste Markers
- Navigate to the new sequence where you want to paste the markers.
- Place the playhead at the desired starting point for the pasted markers.
- Use the standard paste command (Ctrl+V on Windows or Cmd+V on macOS).
- The markers and clips will be pasted at the correct locations.
By enabling this setting, all the markers present in the original sequence are copied alongside the clip data and pasted into your new sequence. This eliminates the need to recreate markers manually.
Table Summarizing the Process:
| Step | Action | Description |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | Enable "Copy and Paste Includes Sequence Markers" | This allows markers to be included when copying from sequences. |
| 2 | Copy the desired clips | Select the clips containing the markers you want to move. |

Following these steps allows you to efficiently transfer markers between Premiere Pro sequences, streamlining your editing workflow.
