Automation question

I’ve recorded a guitar track in stereo (spaced pair) but want to perform a little automation on transient spikes. The problem is if I automate both tracks separately It sounds noticeably odd as the automation is slightly different for each track.

How do I automate both tracks so the exact notch/dip in level is applied to both?

You could send them both to a stereo group, then automate the group fader level

Bingo!

nice one !
