When I interviewed Francis Crossman, Principle Product Manager for Premiere Pro at the 2024 NAB Show, he told me the goal of these upgrades was “fewer clicks to get to your final mix faster.” Here’s what Adobe did to achieve that.

Faster, GPU-accelerated Speech to Text
Speech to Text is now GPU-accelerated and over 15% faster for speedier automatic transcription and Text-Based Editing workflows. With additional changes under the hood, accuracy has also been improved across 18 languages.
Improved marker behavior with powerful new filtering options
The Marker panel now includes filter options to Show All Markers, Show Sequence Markers, and Show Clip Markers. Choose any one filter to view the markers most relevant to your current work. Select Ignore Selection in Timeline to filter markers regardless of which track items are selected in the timeline. With these behaviors, it’s easier to stay organized and find exactly what you need.
Revamped text styling for captions and graphics
An all-new overhaul of text styling within Premiere Pro introduces thumbnails and a fresh style browser. Seamlessly reuse your favorite styles across multiple projects for a streamlined editing experience like never before.
Label Color Presets and Swatches
Use label color presets to select, name, and share your project’s unique label colors. Associate colors to label defaults and create a preset you can share with your whole team so you can stay organized together. Plus, when you right-click on an item to apply a new label color, you’ll see a color swatch next to the name.
Here’s the list of bug fixes in this release.
