2 questions : 

1- I'm trying to open multi cams from the source into the timeline for pancake editing. I could swear that I've opened Multicam sequences in timeline before. Suddenly it's not working? is that not possible?

2 - Is there a way to not have adaptive audio in the the "create new sequence from clip." I've tried modifying the audio in modify >. audio on the Multicam and the source clips before creating the Multicam. 

Thanks

Thanks,

A few updates and questions.

This worked to open the sequence in a timeline which is helpful. Thank you.

Pancake editing with multi cams is my goal. Experimenting more, If you drag the multi clipped sequence to the source it doesn't show you all cameras. But, if you \[wrench > open in timeline\] it will create a timeline with Multicam clips to edit with. see here - [https://imgur.com/a/Mb7DH57](https://imgur.com/a/Mb7DH57)

so this gets me where I need to be - It's such odd behavior.

What is the recommended workflow for assistant editors to cut down multi clips if multi clips can't be edited and then viewed in the source? Basically, AE's c

Your first issue is just some confusing Adobe weirdness. It doesn't consider MC sequence as sequences (even though they basically are) so for some reason that means that 'open as sequence' in the wrench panel of the source monitor won't work.

Instead you need to right click the MC group in the program panel > open in timeline. It's quite low down on the menu, you can't see it on your video at ~32 seconds as you didn't scroll down far enough.

When you went to 'new sequence from clip' on the MC sequence, you're creating a regular sequence, not a MC group. That's why you can't enable multicam in the source monitor. Only sequences created via 'create multicamera source sequence' can be viewed as multicam in the source monitor.

Weridly there isn't a simple way to convert an existing regular sequence to a multicam sequence (or vice versa,) even though regular sequences can be used as if they were multicam sequences while editing.

If you do find yourself needing to do that, create a new M
