Or get a nice Pioneer or Allen & Heath Mixer that has a midi clock and
run you master sync off the mixer.  :)

Hiya,

Even though technically both units should follow song position - because
Midi Clock is 24 ppq and you are hardware slaving from Live - there is
always the chance that you will lose midi clocks here and there leading
to odd/erratic sync in your hardware. Unless you are certain of the
stability of your PC midi sync out - you might be better off slaving
Live to either one of your Elektron boxes which have ultra-reliable
clocking. Also - are you using a thru box for the sync or are you daisy
chaining. Daisy chaining sync is a sure fire way to cause problems. Get
a powered thru box. Run your master sync into the input and run all your
slaves off the 'Thrus'. 

Hope this helps.
