Parameter Linker
This plugin lets you link parameters across multiple tracks.
To use it place an instance on a track with a plugin, click on the first (or whatever) linker slider and go to Param->Parameter modulation->Link from parameter, and choose the one you want from the plugin's drop down list.
Then go to the track you want the parameter linking to, and add another instance.
This time move the knob/slider on the plugin you want to change, and same as above link it to the slider on Linker.
You can alter the behaviour of the sliders with the ones in the "link parameter" dialogue.
You can have up to 64 parameters linked, in blocks of 4, using the slider on the bottom.
I hope some of you find it useful (well I do anyway)
Steve
Here's version 4 https://stash.reaper.fm/13805/linker4.txt I've increased accuracy tenfold and made it sample accurate.

Ahhhhhh!!!!!
If this does what I think it does, then it's something I've been hoping for for ages!
I'll test it thoroughly as soon as I get the chance.
Thank you!

IXix, in my hurry to post this I forgot to credit you for the idea, so I'll take the opportunity to thank you now.
I wasn't aware gmem existed until you pointed it out.
Cheers, Steve

From reading your explanations, I could not get what is the added value of this plugin? Can not we use anyway parameter linking all over tracks? For what is this useful?

AFAIK parameter linking is only available for parameters of plugins in the same FX chain. This lets you bypass that restriction.

I thought there is no such limitation.

Nope, I just checked. You can only link within the track fx chain.

It seems this is quite an artificial limitation? Why not allowing anything to link anywhere else? Hmm, who knows... staying just in a single track is not really a big benefit, more interesting is being able to link to other tracks.

Couldn't agree more but presumably it's not as simple as you might imagine. If it was simple then it would have been done already. I can't see a FR about this in the tracker though, maybe we should request it.

This is a great little plugin and I just wanted to give it a *bump* would be neat if it was builtin or possible sample-accurate (not sure if it is or not, but I assume it's not)

I'm unable to link parameters of FX placed on the master bus. Any particular reason it won't work there? ...or I'm just doing something wrong as it works like a charm on individual or, so to say, non-master bus tracks

I didn't mean to imply it has anything to do with the version. It also works for me in 4.151. Again, if you are using a different version it doesn't mean that has anything to do with it, but it's a place to start with any bug tracking.
Are you sure the "Link Address" is the same on the Master track and any other tracks?

Could this not also be done with OSC to increase resolution of the parameter changes vs MIDI?

I'm sure it could, but I've no OSC device to test it with.
The code itself is very easy to follow and I think all you'd need to do is change the min, max and step size values in the slider definitions at the top.
slider#:starting position<min,max,step>name
Cheers, Steve.

I've modified it a bit. You'll find the file in the edit of the first post.
It's now 10x more accurate.
Please PM me any bugs.
Cheers, Steve
PS. It's also sample, rather than block accurate, hence the higher CPU hit.

You don't need an OSC 'device' to test OSC at all. In fact, there hardly are any OSC devices. I can recommend Pure data (extended) for playing around and testing OSC features (if you'd like to, feel free for help getting up and going).
But I'm not sure you'd need OSC for that at all. Just using float values does the trick already, doesn't it?
PS: OSC will not be able to have sample accuracy, afaik.

Great idea, and exactly what I was looking for.
lxm, this is a JS script, you'll need to learn more about JS scripts for this to make sense, but essentially you'll make a new JS effect and paste this code into it.

OMG
I can't believe it took me so long to find this! Thank You! jeezus
Excellent analog to Ableton's Macro control/effects/instrument racks functionality !! And I'd say it's even more versatile. Awesome.

Hey, I'm having a problem linking parameters across multiple tracks with envelopes. If I have stuff linked to "Linker 1" and have an envelope for Linker 1 in track 1, the linkers on other tracks are delayed slightly.

Thank you for this great tool!
Works like a charm, once I understood, I have to "touch" the slider I'd like to link in the first place

Wow - thanks for this! So many people doing clever and helpful things here!
If anyone has time to post a simple session showing this noob how to pull this off, it would teach me a lot I can use going forward.
If so, something simple, like volume modulation on one track inversely volume modulating another track (when one goes up, the other goes down).
Many thanks - and I understand if noone has time too.

I have some research to do for sure. Its not loading up here as shown by the attached screenshot. I'll do my best to figure out how to use JS. I'll have to do it in non-work hours.

Oh, right, sorry about that - I used the latest pre-release of REAPER v5 for this (which also includes a sample-accurate version of the volume/pan JS effect plug-in); please check out the pre-release forum to find out where to download a v5 version.

so, this won't work with plugins that have tons of parameters and preset switching, at least, quickly, right?
If I have two "revalvers" and I want them to have the same sound, how would I set that up to work
