I have finished my first sequence and it is longer than the song. So I have 3.5 minutes of nothing happening. How do I move the end of the sequence to the end of the song?

You sequenced without the song?
How did you get into this situation?
Um... Well... You could select the entire end of the sequence, then timeshift the entire sequence over, then paste at the front.
Fine. You're so smart you rig up the lights.

I am not sure what you are saying. Sorry, I am new to this. My sequence goes on for 3 minutes after the music and the lights have stopped. This places a 3 minute space in between songs when playing.

Alright, are you talking about Borealis, the schedular? Or do you mean a single song has a 3 min dead-space at the tail?

I'm going to take a wild guess here that this is an MP3 audio file, and the MP3 has a malformed header which is fooling Aurora into thinking it is longer than it is. 
 
If yes, then converting the MP3 to WAV and using the WAV file instead will fix the problem.  Some other users here recommend the free program Audacity for this conversion task.

I'd be concidered an 'other users' :)

Yep Lights on Logan is right, NEVER use MP3's, ALWAYS convert ALL music files to WAV's.
 
Whilst MP3's do work most of the time, they almost always come and bite you in the future.
 
Audacity can be download for free at:
