Default Consolidte all drum trks at once?

I have 3 takes of live drums and have made a 4th to be my COMP take from editing the previous 3. Now I am consolidating each individual drum trk of the kit in my comp playlist, but it takes a while to render these one at a time.

Just wondering if I could hi-lite all my trks in the Comp playlist on their trks and hit Consolidate? Any harm in doing this so it would consolidate all of them at once? Here is a link to a user video. Is she correct to consolidate all the trks at once? Simple Yes it's fine/No it's not good reply is fine.
Thanks.

I do it often. Just drag across(I usually go from the bottom track far right and drag up and back to zero). Just make sure you don't have any clicks(add crossfades if needed). Her video does not consolidate back to zero, which is also fine, BUT, if you are not going back to zero, enable GRID mode so you end up with your audio files starting from a spot that meshes with the BPM(if you are working to a click track). If no click track, then skip that part.
