Is it possible to setup one lever to control multiple functions with different value ranges?

Problem to Solve: I'd like one lever to strobe all my lights.
Current Setup: I'm running 4 Martin MX4's, and 12 Chauvet Q12 SlimPAR BTs. I currently have 2 strobe levers, one for the Pars, and one for the scanners.
Problem I'm facing: My Chauvet Slimpars have a dedicated strobe channel, using all values 0-255 (Solid to Fast). My Martin's do not have a dedicated strobe channel. Strobe is part of the master dimmer channel, running values 100-160 (fast to slow). I can't find a way to make one lever run both functions with different value ranges.
I currently have one lever for the pars 0-255, and another lever that goes from 99-160 inversely for the Martin's. Both levers work individually.
I would like a single lever that adjusts the Martins between values 99-160 and the pars between values 0-255, simultaneously. That way when I set the lever to 50%, the actual value going to the Martins would be at 130, and for the Pars it would be at 128, giving me a 50% strobe on all units. I just want to reach in the console and attach a little bar connecting the two levers together.
If this is not possible, or I'm going about this the wrong way, I'd love any and all input on a solution.
Thank you
