Adobe on their blogs has released a whole lot of info on the new version of Premiere Pro.
the next version of Adobe Premiere Pro offers a slew of new features and refinements that let you move through your projects efficiently and intuitively, including Editing Finesse workflow enhancements, Link & Locate to help you find files faster, an expanded audio toolset, an even more responsive Mercury Playback Engine, and a powerful new closed captioning workflow. We’ve also added the Lumetri Deep Color Engine to Premiere Pro, so you can apply .look files from Adobe SpeedGrade to your clips and cut with the aesthetic of the grade. A library of preset Lumetri looks is included, offering simple, beautiful looks without leaving the application.
And the Top New features:
▪ Editing finesse: multiple refined tools and workflows to help you work faster than ever
▪ Redesigned Timeline: a cleaner look and feel for intuitive workflows
▪ Customizable track headers with the option to save track header presets
▪ Duplicate frame markers: see which frames have already been used
▪ Paste attributes: paste the attributes of customized effects
▪ Link & Locate: Allows for much faster and simpler clip relinking and media management
▪ Lumetri Deep Color Engine: Apply rich color presets to clips from the new Lumetri Looks browser, or apply LUTs or .look files from Adobe SpeedGrade to clips
▪ New Audio Clip Mixer for adjusting levels on individual clips
▪ Audio control surface support
▪ New audio Plug-ins including the TC Electronic Loudness meter
▪ Support for VST3 and Audio Unit plugins (Mac OS only)
▪ Adobe Anywhere for video integration. Just launched, Adobe Anywhere is a modern, collaborative workflow platform that empowers users of Adobe video tools to work together, using centralized media, across any network. Learn more here.
▪ Industry-standard mezzanine codecs DNxHD (in MXF), and ProRes are built-in(ProRes encode requires Mac OS X 10.8.x)
▪ Natively edit more formats including Sony XAVC and Panasonic AVC-Intra 200
▪ Import, edit, repurpose, and export Closed Captions
▪ OpenCL and CUDA support on Mac and Windows, and far more supported GPUs than ever before (plus the ability to enable an unsupported GPU)
▪ AAF and XML import improvements to allow you to move projects and sequences from Avid and Final Cut Pro 7 (or earlier) systems
Not Knowing more, I am most excited about being able to Paste any attributes, duplicate frame markers, Link & Locate (WOOHOO, this will save so much time), audio control surface support, ADOBE ANYWHERE which I have talked about before, and am so excited to be able to have centralized media and edit from anywhere, better CUDA support including being able to enable unsupported GPU’s!

CAN’T WAIT!!!!
