Hey bud- have had to do this before - easiest way was this: (I'm on 2018.7, mac)

- turn on "suppress name dialogue for new playlists" in preferences
- create a new 1 audio track above all your other tracks, make sure it's selected.
- rename it whatever you want (ie. "Vocal Take" or something related to your files) with no number at the end.
- hold CTRL and press \ over and over until you create XX # of empty playlists, they will be auto-named (ie. Vocal Take.01, Vocal Take.02, etc)
- switch back to the original playlist before you started duplicating. (i.e. "Vocal Take")
- open playlist view on the new audio track and you'll have XX# of empty lanes to drag tracks on to that are in numerical order starting with .01
- highlight all the takes you have on separate audio tracks below this and drag them up as a group up to the blank playlist area you created.
- delete any unused playlists.

hope that helps!
