23.1. SYNCHRONIZING VIA MIDI 336
(subdivisions of a second). Live will interpret a Timecode message as a position in the
Arrangement. Timecode messages carry no meter-related information; when slaving
Live to another sequencer using MIDI Timecode, you will have to adjust the tempo
manually. Tempo changes cannot be tracked. Detailed MIDI Timecode preferences
are explained later in this chapter. With respect to MIDI Timecode, Live can only act
as a MIDI sync slave, not a master.
23.1.1 Synchronizing External MIDI Devices to Live
Live can send MIDI Clock messages to an external MIDI sequencer (or drum machine). After
connecting the sequencer to Live and setting it up to receive MIDI sync, turn the device on
as a sync destination in Live's MIDI Preferences.
Choosing a MIDI Slave
for Live.
The lower indicator LED next to the Control Bar's EXT button will ash when Live is sending
sync messages to external sequencers.
23.1.2 Synchronizing Live to External MIDI Devices
Live can be synchronized via MIDI to an external sequencer. After connecting the sequencer
to Live and setting it up to send sync, use Live's MIDI Preferences to tell Live about the
connection.
