If this me, I do what Bob Calver does.

Make Bar 2, the first bar of your song. This means that Bar 1 can then be used as a pick-up bar,

If you right click on Bar 1, select "Insert bar" to insert a single bar.

BEFORE DOING ANYTHING, though, save your song and then save it with a slightly new name. This will give you two versions of the song—the original version and the version you modify. It's always good to keep the original so that you can get back to it if you need to.

Regards,
Noel
