    In the Netlinx Help File check out the M2M (Master-to-Master) section. It might be within the spectrum of your use-case.

    The image I had in my mind of you has been shattered! I expected you to sound older and crankier - no offence intended!

    HAHAHA!

    Actually, as some of you may know, my other life apart from this stuff is I have been a music producer and audio engineer for many many years. I've produced a lot of music in the indie world and have sang and played on a lot of records. I also run a record label (http://www.tremulant.com) and do my own music as well. But most people don't know what I look like (thankfully) the most common comment I get when people do finally see me is just that: "I am really surprised by what you look like." So, I'm used to disappointing people. :)
