XSI rocks when it comes to blending.
Since you can use only one "link with" at a time, on a param:
You need to blend those "link with" expressions with the mixer.
First, turn the "link with" expression to a "clip".
Remove the "link-with" and create the new one...
Then add the clips to separate mixer anim tracks.
Animate the weight on the tracks to blend or hook those up to a panel or
param set...
This is shown in depth in the 3DMastermind DVD kit :)

Subject: Re: multiple link withs
I want to be able to grab all the transforms on a null, and have it go
to a pose based on a custom parameter value. Then, later, set up another
pose based on another custom parameter. I'm not sure if link with multi
will fit the bill. One problem is that it seems to only work one channel
at a time.
I'm looking into it...
Thanks,
Dave
