in addition to what martin says above, you can control other things the same way, it's called quick grouping, just watch the yellow (orange?) dot appearing by the controls the moment you touch one with the mouse while holding down ctrl key
there is also the regular grouping function, you can create groups by right-clicking on the controls, it's even more flexible, yo can make the controls move in absolute or relative way or even reverse if you like, set your start- and end-points
btw you can quick-select tracks just by clicking on one track's number and swiping over the rest, same goes with mute, solo etc
