Step-by-Step Guide
To use sequence markers in Adobe Premiere Pro CC 2018, follow these steps:
1. Create Sequence Markers
To set a sequence marker, first select a range of your clip. Then press the “M key”. This will place a sequence marker at the desired location. This marker remains firmly anchored in the clip and cannot be moved.

2. Create Global Sequence Markers
If you want to set a global sequence marker, click anywhere in the timeline window and press the “M key” again. This gives you the option to use markers for larger edits that are not tied to a specific clip.

3. Customize Sequence Markers
Now you can customize your sequence markers individually. Click on the set sequence marker and change the color or length to suit your preferences. Confirm your changes with "OK".

4. Create Multiple Sequence Markers
Create multiple sequence markers by placing markers at different points in the clip. These can be labeled with comments and prioritized differently. Go through the clip and add them as you see fit.

5. Copy Clip Without Sequence Markers
Now you will want to copy a clip. If you simply press Ctrl (or Cmd) and C without selecting a marking option, the sequence markers will not be copied over to the new clip.

6. Use the New Feature
To copy sequence markers, go to the menu and select “Markers” and then choose “Copy and Paste”. This allows you to manage multiple sequence markers at once.

7. Paste Clip with Sequence Markers
Now select the clip you copied and paste it using Ctrl (or Cmd) and V. You will see that the sequence markers have now been actively transferred.
8. Work Flexibly
One of the great features of this new function is that you can adjust your composition at any time. You can disable pasting sequence markers again to restore the old state.
