Hi guys...

At the beginning of the project is easy and there's multiple ways. Here's two:

1. Press CTRL-A to select all events and then drag them to the right.
2. Put the cursor at the beginning of the timeline and then go to Insert - Time and specify how much time you want inserted.

control Agrabs ALL events on ALL tracks. Move them down (to the right) as far as you need to and you're set.
You can also grab the top event control click to the bottom track and then right click for the menu, select events to end and do the same. Move the events and you're all set.

looks like ET and me answered at the same time ;-)
