How can you change the playback speed of the entire sequence?

To change the playback speed of an entire sequence in Adobe Premiere Pro, modifying the Speed/Duration settings is the appropriate approach. This feature allows you to set the playback speed for the entire sequence, thereby enabling adjustments to how the footage plays back.

When you access the Speed/Duration settings, you can enter a specific percentage to speed up or slow down your sequence. For instance, setting the speed to 200% would double the playback speed, while reducing it to 50% would slow it down to half the original speed. This method applies uniform changes to the playback speed across all clips in the sequence, ensuring a cohesive adjustment.

The other options do not facilitate changing the playback speed of the entire sequence effectively. Simply dragging the timeline faster does not alter the actual speed of playback but merely changes how quickly you navigate through the timeline. Adjusting the volume control in preferences is related to audio levels and does not impact video playback speed. Increasing the frame rate in project settings may affect how the footage is interpreted but is not a direct method for changing playback speed in a sequence.
