57. How do I insert a blank measure in my song?

Version 11 and higher have a menu command to do this: Edit | Insert Blank Bars into Song.

In previous versions, it was necessary to use the following steps. Say you want to insert a measure in between bars 9 and 10 in tracks 1 through 4:

  1. In the Bars Window, highlight bar 10 in tracks 1 through 4 by clicking and dragging with the mouse.
  2. Press F7. This makes the current time the beginning of the marked (selected) area.
  3. Click the Fast Forward button to move to the end of your song.
  4. Press F8. This makes the current time the end of the marked area.
  5. Press CTRL-X (cut).
  6. Go back, position the cursor at bar 11, and press CTRL-V (Paste).
