Default Activating multiple sends simultaneously

I would like to put the same send on multiple tracks at the same time. Takes forever to go through 20-35 tracks and individually put the same send. I know that an output can be changed on many tracks at the same time but I can’t figure out how to put the same send on multiple tracks all at once.

Is it possible?

Thanks

Yes. Hold option key while clicking the first time, that makes the effect for all tracks. shift+option for selected tracks.

That's right.
Option while doing an action like creating a send applies to all tracks.
Option-shift = apply to all selected tracks.

This works on inserts, sends, I/O, makeactive/makeinactive, lots of actions. You can also hold option-shift and right-click, to f.ex delete or duplicate or anything else in the context-menu, and it will happen to only the selected tracks. Option-shift-command-click on a send will bypass that send on all selected tracks. And so on.

Another tip; In my standard session template, I have one of each type of tracks, each set up with a number of sends going to some aux tracks (solo-safed) ready to have reverbs etc inserted on them. When I need a new mono audio track f.ex, I just duplicate the mono with sends already on it. I have also track presets that achieve the same thing.
