how do I move multiple takes from one track to a different single track in logic pro? Version 11.1.2 (newest)

how do I move multiple takes from one track to a different single track in logic pro? Version 11.1.2 (newest) For example I recorded 2 muted guitar licks on a track that also has 3 other lead guitar licks and I’d like to move the 2 muted guitar licks to a different single track so I can comp them separate from the other lead guitar licks that have originally all been recorded on the same track. I know how to move a single take to a new track but how do I move both of my muted guitar takes to a new track so I can easily comp/edit them separately from the other lead guitar takes that happen to currently be on the same track as my two muted guitar takes?

No, I am not familiar with that process as I have recently changed to Logic Pro after 20 years of ProTools. I was hoping it would be as simple as dragging the takes (multiple takes of a track) that I wanted to move to another audio track and edit them separate from the other takes on the track in question. I’ve only found the option to move a single take to a new created track. I can't figure out how to move multiple takes to a new track all at once.

I do use take folders. I basically had a guy come in and record a couple of muted guitar lines on a track (two different takes) and then he laid down a couple adlib lead guitar lines on the same audio track so there are now muted guitar lines and lead lines in the same track in about 6 different takes on that track (in the same take folder). The problem I am having is that now I want to keep and edit a muted guitar line (from the first two takes) and also separate the later takes that are lead licks on the same audio track on to a new track so I can comp both the muted guitar line takes and the lead guitar line takes on two separate audio tracks. The issue is I have all 6 takes (2 muted lines and 4 lead lines) on the same track in one take folder. I was hoping it would be as simple as dragging the two muted takes that I wanted to move to another audio track and edit/comp them separate from the other lead takes that are currently on the same track/in the same take folder. I’ve only found the option to export a single take to a new track but can't figure out how to move multiple takes (both muted guitar takes) to a new track all at once so I can comp them separately. I hope that makes sense.
