Probably the most annoying thread in history.

Right. I've looked into this time and time again.

Laptop syncing.
I've tried all the usual midi settings, it sometimes works. I assume latency has a lot to do with this.
It just doesn't seem stable enough for me to set two laptops up in a busy club and press go, expecting it to work.

Can somebody please give me a definitive setup, whether it be software or hardware. I don't care how i do it, it just needs to be done. Im on ableton 7.

I saw Deadmau5 moaning about this recently, i think he might have got round it with an external mtc clock of some sort?

PLEASE HELP.

Thanks guys.

midi ox can send an MTC and you can sync solidly to it. trouble is you can no longer change bpm on the fly.

See this thread and the one it links to for details: http://forum.ableton.com/viewtopic.php? ... 5&start=30
