Now, I know it's technically that editor's job to 'flatten' his sequence before handing it to the finishing editor, but that doesn't always happen. So, my technique has always been to highlight the uppermost clip(s,) drag it down to the next track, then highlight the other clips, drag down, etc., until only the 'uppermost clip' is in the timeline - and clips in higher tracks are keys or layers.
