Adjust TRACK Levels Simultaneously?

Does anyone know if there is a way to adjust the levels on multiple TRACKS at the same time, as oppose to adjusting them one by one? I have 10 tracks in this particular session that I want to lower the levels on, but maintain the continuity amongst them.  I need to keep the master gain at 0dB, but lower the track levels so that the master gain levels off at around -6dB. Pretty sure there's not, but figured I'd give this forum a shot.

Alternative method to that suggested previously (and, perhaps, easier!)

Assign all the 10 tracks you wish to alter to a Bus.  Then, the bus fader movements will affect uniformly all the tracks assigned to it.

EDIT, to add: I hope it's obvious that, when assigning those tracks to the Bus you need to ​remove​ the assignment of each one to the Master, so signal flow is Track>Bus>Master.

I have found that if you select all clips in all tracks that you want to change then go to Properties Clip Gain then altering the Clip Gain will affect all clips selected by the same amount. However note that it will override any previous single Clip Gain adjustments.

There have been previous requests for some sort of Track DCA grouping that would have the effect you are after.
