Change 3/4 to 4/4
I'd like to change a 3/4 score to 4/4 by adding another beat to every bar. If I just drop a 4/4 at the beginning, it advances the first beat of the next measure into the last beat of the first measure and so on. Messy. But I need to create some space to put the new beats in. Which I can't do when the meter is 3/4. Is there some clever way to do this? Ideally an option to leave the downbeats alone....

Jazz musicians often play the theme of a ¾ song in ¾ and switch to 4/4 (swing) for improvisation. This is achieved by adding a beat to the first beat of each measure.
