Default Can someone help me program a script from this task list?

Hi all

I'm new to custom actions/scripts/macros in Reaper. Having trouble figuring out what I need to do in order to accomplish a particular set of tasks that are the same every time I work on a recording. Need a script that produces each part of an SATB recording in separate file where that voice part is louder and all other parts quiet. I've written out all the steps, below).

If someone can easily create a script for me, or better yet (teach a man to fish...), if someone can tell me the best way to do this myself, I'd really appreciate it.

Many thanks!
Jason

Alternatively to doing this 100% automated and producing generic 'song' filenames, a pause to allow me to enter a specific string in the appropriate fields for each rendered track could be cool!
