Any plugins that come built in to FL can be linked by simply right-clicking and selecting "link to controller...". I rarely use those, apart from love philter and fruity verb 2.
Any 3rd party plugin can do it similiar to automation clips. give a good nippletwist to the parameter and go to plug-in menu and then "link to controller".
then just move the controller you want to link and youre set.
Creating templates is a chore but you only have to do it once:
