Default ducking a stereo music bed

Which FX plugin would I use to duck (temporarily fade, and then bring up) a stereo music track when vocals are talking or singing? How would I set up the sidechain for this purpose?

I have two lead vocals on two separate tracks, that are riding on a stereo music submix. I can see the concept for one track ducking another, but how can I get both tracks to control the level?

you mean control the level of both the vocal tracks by each other ?

like a cross ducking ?

you could just apply some compression on each and one on the stereo mix without ducking

What I'd like to do is have each vocal activate ducking on the stereo track; when they're both singing, the level would come back up after their parts are finished.

Put the 2 vocal tracks in a folder. Then use the folder track # to trigger the compressor that is on the stereo track using aux inputs LR
