Add a track while adding a clip

Drag a clip from the Project panel or Source Monitor into the blank space above the topmost video track (for a video or linked clip) or below
the lowest audio track (for an audio or linked clip). Premiere Pro adds an audio track, a video track, or both, depending on the content of the
source clip.

If the sequence doesn’t have an unlocked track of the correct media type (for example, a stereo audio track for a stereo source clip), a

new track is created to accommodate the clip.

Insert a clip into a sequence

1. Double-click a clip in a Project panel or sequence to open it in the Source Monitor.

2. Place the playhead at the point in the sequence where you want to insert the clip.

3. In the Timeline panel, click the headers of the tracks where you want to insert the source clip’s components to target them.

4. Drag the source clip track indicators to the headers of the tracks where you want to insert the source clip’s components.

5. Click the Sync Lock box in the header of any track you want to shift as a result of the insertion.

Any track that is either targeted or sync-lock-enabled will be affected by Insert; only non-targeted tracks with Sync Lock disabled will

be unaffected. If a track has no source track indicator, or if the track is not targeted but is operated on because its Sync Lock is enabled,
then an empty track background will be inserted on that track at the CTI for the duration of the source clip

6. In the Source Monitor, click the Insert button

.

The audio and video components of the clip will be inserted into the tracks selected at the playhead. Clips to the right of its location on its own
track and tracks with Sync Lock enabled will shift to the right by the length of the inserted clip.

Overwrite a clip into a sequence

1. Double-click a clip in a Project panel or sequence to open it in the Source Monitor.

3. Click the headers of the tracks where you want to overwrite the source clip components to target them.

4. Drag the source clip track indicators to the headers of the tracks where you want to overwrite the source clip components.

During an overwrite edit, if a targeted track has no source track indicator, then an empty track background will be inserted on that

track for the duration of the source clip, removing any previous contents at that location

5. In the Source Monitor, click the Overwrite button

.

The audio and video components of the clip will be overlaid onto the tracks selected at the playhead.
