Hi Ralf

I share others opinion that plugins have no need to know of each other.
First of all it doesn't know what you want and second it doesn't make
any sense.

You can make a tree of effect chains if it is what you want and combine
with multiple results.

However it's up to you what effects are added. You are not enforced to mix
audio data just leave it out and do it as you need it.

Bests,
Joël
