FocusTracks
Extension for Adobe Premiere
Stop clicking tracks one at a time. Lock or mute groups of tracks in one click.
How it works
Set it up once per sequence. After that it's one key.
Tag your tracks
Click a role on each track, or name your tracks Dialogue, SFX, Music and so on and let Focus Tracks fill them in. Music from your stems bin is suggested for you.
Pick Lock or Mute
Lock protects tracks from edits. Mute silences audio and hides video. Press L or M to switch.
Focus
Focus on a role and everything else of that kind locks or mutes. Press it again to bring it all back.
Audio roles
Video roles
Two jobs, one panel
A switch at the top of the panel picks what the buttons do. Same roles, same Focus button, two different jobs.
Lock mode
Cut without collateral damage
- Layer music without nudging a single line of dialogue.
- Trim B-roll without touching your interview.
- Ripple-delete in one role and leave the rest exactly where it was.
Mute mode
Hear and see only what matters
- Audition the music bed on its own.
- Check your SFX pass without the dialogue on top.
- Watch the B-roll with the A-roll hidden.

Questions
Does it change my edit?
No. It only locks, mutes or hides tracks, and saves each track's role in the sequence. Your clips are never touched.
Does Mute mode change my mix?
No. It flips the same mute and track output buttons you'd click in the timeline. Unmute and everything sounds exactly as before.
What if I add or delete tracks?
Roles stay with the right tracks. New tracks get a suggested role based on their name or what's on them.
Which versions of Premiere Pro?
Tested on Premiere Pro 2024, 2025 and 2026. It should work back to 2022, but those versions haven't been tested.
Mac or Windows?
It's tested on Mac. Windows support is coming.
Is it saved with my project?
Yes. Roles are stored in each sequence, so they're there when you reopen the project or hand it off.
