I just tried it, I don't think you can do it. The way I would do it would be to automate the track activators of all the tracks you wanted to turn off. Hopefully you don't have 35 tracks to deactivate.

I'm at work, so no manual here, but isn't it F1-F10 or 1-9... or something close to that?

Solo Automation is on wishlist - would like to be able to fade into and out from solo too.

I remember this being mentioned somewhere before and the answer from Ableton was that it'd involve a major rewrite of the engine in order to support this. That was at least two versions ago though
