Have got myself into a non-ideal workflow situation where my client is in the habit of asking for edits (from multiple live source takes) after a balance/mix has been done.

The way round this is to have all the valid takes on the timeline, suitably spaced and indexed with Cue locations. Then build final edits inbetween them: [{Song 1 mix} - {Song 1 Takes 1, 2, 3...}] - [{Song 2 Mix} - {Song 2 Takes 1, 2, 3...}] .... etc.

Messy, but it works, keeps all the source takes available and allows for balance/mix adjustments in situ.

As each song may need a different balance, it is great to have the "Snapshot Channel Settings to Automation" feature, so I can re-baseline the settings for each song down the timeline.

Question: Selecting/highlighting track numbers does not cause each selected track to be snapshotted (is that a word?). Is there any way to write snapshots simultaneously for all my active tracks at once?

OK, so I know I'm being lazy here... ;-)

Cheers!
