Can someone please help me?
I used the record feature to transcribe music from my MIDI keyboard. But because of input delay, everything is shifted to the right a sixteenth rest. Is there any way to move everything back a sixteenth rest? If I delete the sixteenth rest, it just hides it, rather than shifting everything over a sixteenth.
I'd really appreciate any help! Thank you so much!

Try cut and paste: select every note apart from the unwanted 16th rest to the end, ctrl (or cmd) X click on the 16th rest and ctrl/cmd V to replace the notes. In common with many/most notation editors there is no specific function to delete rests (essentially everything is a rest or a note) and this is the usual way to shift the notes around.
