Enabling Automatic Sequence Conform Options
In the Editing tab of the User Preferences window, the “Auto conform sequence”
pop-up menu allows you to choose one of three automatic conform options for when
the first clip is added to sequence:
 Ask: Final Cut Pro presents a dialog asking if you want to conform your sequence
settings to those of the first clip you add. Clicking Yes in this dialog conforms the
sequence settings to the current clip settings. Clicking No does not change the
sequence settings, but the clip is still added. This option is chosen by default.
 Always: The sequence settings are automatically conformed to the settings of the
first clip added. No dialog appears.
 Never: Sequence settings are never affected by the first clip added.
