read part ten of the digital performer 4.5 manual,
"synchronization".  it may be a different part in
earlier versions.

in a nutshell, you can transmit midi beat clock to your
devices' ports {be sure to set them to external clock} from DP, or
you can have DP receive sync from one of the devices {i find
that the machinedrum is well suited for this} and echo
received sync to other ports.
