multi track macros in ableton

Is it possible to make macro controls spanning the devices on multiple (2) tracks?
I want to control two devices on different tracks with the same automation.
I can't use an effects bus because each track has unique devices.

Do you have hardware?

Haven't tried this, but you could group the tracks you want the macros to apply to and try that way? I'm not sure I'm even talking sense.

You are talking sense, but thats what I can't do because there are different effects on each track, but I still want to modulate them simultaneously

HOLY SHIT.
ok but all you have to do is map a couple of macros to the same midi knob. done.

because that's less intuitive and more mechanical. although it does the same job
