Hello ReasonTalk :),
so a few days back while mixing on a project an idea come to me of how great would it be if we were able to LINK (Pair) multiple devices together to just control one(TOP Device) and the other would follow(Bottom Device)..

As an example,
I chose Selig DeEsser since it has the limitation of needing two devices to be able to work in true stereo.
With this option i can control both with just one device, let say once linking the top device becomes the MASTER.

Great idea!

I use something similar all the time in theatre and live sound whether it's a link feature of a digital sound board or assigning 'gangs' with QLab. Could be handy in many cases.

Ah, yes yes
The ability to implement LINK on Channels would give us the capabilities to sync the Input/Dyna/EQ/Send and Fader controls on the SSL mixer together 👍🏼

I know that these are more advance options but I believe the beauty of Reason is that it gives us that option to go as complex as we want and by using a LINK feat, it would make it easier for us to work with dual devices much easer

Oh that's nice that other programs offer something similar to what is being talked here, honestly I don't use any other program other than Reason because I am already use to Reasons work flow and customization, would be nice to see this be brought into Reason : )

This link feature could also be implemented with a vastly extended combinator by simply increasing the number of buttons, rotaries and slots in the programmer.
