Correction, after further study, it appears the mutually exclusive
commands on the dialer interface are 'dialer remote-name' and 'dialer
map'. If you set a remote name, you can no longer use 'dialer map'(which
is required for snapshot), you can only set a dialer string.
But, if you do specify a 'dialer remote-name' first, you cannot enter
'dialer in-band', you get that error '%Remove the dialer profile first'
You can enter 'dialer in-band', then enter 'dialer remote-name', but at
that point you can't enter dialer maps, so I guess that doesn't do any
good anyway.

So what exactly does 'dialer in-band' do anyway?
CCO says:
dialer in-band
To specify that dial-on-demand routing (DDR) is to be supported, use the
dialer in-band interface configuration command. To disable DDR for the
interface, use the no form of this command.

But that doesn't make any sense, I can setup DDR with dialer profiles
using dialer pools, and without using 'dialer in-band' and it works just
fine.
