Replying to Frederik Olufsen question about moving applied track audio effect and keyframes:

Yes PlumePack moves the entire track with associated effects and keyframes (not only clips from one track to another).

So if you applied audio effects on one track and then use PlumePack to move this track from one index to another, then your audio effects will move along with the track. You will keep all your work on audio levels, pan curves, ...

I'm curious how you are doing this so far?

We are going to add this information in our article "How to Reorder Tracks in Adobe Premiere Pro".

Replying to Marions post regarding using PlumePack for reordering.
Does this method move applied track audio effects and assosiated autiomation / key-framing (audio-leveling and pan curves) along with the track, or does only move clips from one track to another.

I've attached an example of some basic mixing from a project, that should help clarification and simulations show what an insanely tedious maneuver it currently is if one would want to "re-arrange" audio tracks in Premiere Pro's current state, which quite frankly is preposterous in a professional workflow.

Thanks

If you are still looking for a solution to re-order your tracks on Premiere Pro,
we have developed a new feature available with the Premium version of our Plugin PlumePack.
You can have a look on Autokroma website to get more information about this feature.

Or another alternative way to do this:

Add an empty track where you're moving to
Press A to get the track select tool up.
Shift click at the start of the track you want to shift (highlights everything on that track)
Press V to get arrow tool
Shift click highlighted clips (prevents them tracking forward or backward)
...and drag drop to the empty track

You could even do a macro to do the first part of this (I have a streamdeck which would make this a one press operation)

100% agree still not as intuitive or easy as drag / drop and IMO I still think we need this feature for real.

To be honest, I think that feature isn't even that critical as you can do it already. Not by drag and drop, sure and yes, that would be nice to have but it's not critical in my opinion.
The way to do it:
1) open the sequence you want to reorder the tracks in the source monitor
2) patch the sources/tracks in the timeline the way you want
3) insert with playhead at the beginning of your timeline and without in/out markers

The result is the same as drag and dropping tracks directly.
It's not too complicated or tedious and I wouldn't even call that way a workaround. Also I never had to rearrange tracks so often that I need the drag and drop feature this badly. There are other features missing entirely that I'd wish to have on a daily basis.

Serena, go on their FB page and request this. https://www.facebook.com/groups/1053332041438150
Also, use the FB messenger found on the page and request it.
If you Tweet, tweet it (@Adobe).
Get your PremPr friends to do the same.
Bombard them with this request. If everyone does this, then it will get their attention.

I'm not too sure I believe that statement about the amount of votes, considering nearly everything on this forum gets ignored, even the ones with the highest votes. Sure several of them say they're "under review", but when you hover over the words it says "Updated over 3 years ago" or more for nearly every one.
This one specifically is on the very first page, which should be good enough to get attention anyway. No amount of votes is going to result in Adobe caring, as evident based on the third top voted suggestion being full of people with good points who got belittled by Adobe employees and then ghosted for over 5 months.

I've exchanged a couple of FB messenges with the Adobe PremPro. I've asked for the social media people to get this request in front of the PremPro product team. The latest response indicated that they'll be our advocate to get this feature fixed. Meanwhile, they said it's the number of VOTES on this request that also determines their priorities.
So... everyone who knows anyone on PremPr, have them come to this request and VOTE. And, have them ask them to get some of their colleagues to VOTE on this.
Let's bombard them with VOTES to get their attention.
Remember... squeaky wheel.
Don't forget to Tweet as well.

I posted on Adobe premiere pro FB page. Everyone who sees this should do the same. If we all do FB posts and Twitter Tweets... maybe... just MAYBE... they'll get it done. Remember... the squeaky wheel gets the grease... So, everyone, start squeaking.

Here's the Adobe Premier Pro FB page:
https://www.facebook.com/groups/1053332041438150

I have a suggestion for all in this thread. Let's use social media to get the Adobe folks to fix this problem. I'm pretty sure Adobe has people who monitor their social media accounts. It's been several years since this thread started and so many of us have been requesting it... all to no avail. Using social media just may light a fire under their feet to have them take care of this.
So, for those who use twitter, start tweeting.(@Adobe). Post on their Facebook page.

Just Copy and paste this page to their social media accounts.

I often create pieces that grow in ways I cannot fully predict at the outset, so will be very glad when this feature makes its way into PP.

Each voter and commenter gets an email notification for every comment which probably explains the increase in comments.

+1 From me surprised there is so many comments on this thread from so recently

How is this not a thing yet??

I do a lot of post-editing of Zoom files from meetings with 20+ attendees. Zoom now provides ISO Audio (one track per attendee), and I drag them over to a separate sequence, then drag that sequence over to the main video sequence. Since the audio tracks are in order of "entry into the meeting" time, I want to be able to drag the main speakers to the top. I KNOW it's possible to "add track", "drag track", "delete empty track"... but what a pain! Please... SOME command or keystroke combination for "drag this track in between two other tracks".

Please add this feature.

In light of this and so many other unaddressed issues, I made the switch to Resolve over 2 years ago and have never looked back. It's been a boon for my sanity as an editor not to have to grapple with Premiere's sloppy engineering on a daily basis. I'm producing creative training content that includes other Adobe software such as Photoshop and After Effects, but Premiere takes the cake as the most annoying NLE on the market. If someone asks about Premiere, I tell them to avoid it like the plague. Judging by Adobe's falling stock price, it's clear they've rested on their laurels for far too long. Perhaps it would be a good choice of company direction to listen to the people who actually pay for their software?

Adobe is turning into Apple and they do what they want, not what the customer wants. It makes no sense for them to do this, even if there's 2000 people begging them to do it. Too much work and not needed, since they've never experienced what some of us who have via Vegas Pro. I'm looking into alternatives as well from Black Magic.

It's maddening that this still hasn't been addressed. This simple but HIGHLY useful feature has been available in Vegas for years. Does Adobe even read these?
