Add measure add the beginning in MC6?

If I've already mapped out time signature/key changes in a song and recorded some of it, is there a way to add a measure at the beginning of the song and shift all the events and markers ahead one measure? The song starts with a single guitar and I forgot to leave a measure for a count in.

    Go to Insert at the top, then Time/Measures and set it to whatever amount you want, make some selections on what you want moved (usually everything) and click OK. That should move everything by the amount specified by you.

    you can also highlight ALL the tracks by right clicking until they are all darker min color, then be sure the snap to is set to MEASURES and simply drag them to the right as far as you need. 


    As a note: I always leave 2 measures at the beginning of every song for count in and lead in notes. Most recently I needed to add 13 measures for a special lead in fiddle part that I though of after everything else was in place..... I highlighted and dragged the entire project to make room at the start for the new part.
