This might be really simple to do but I just have no idea how... Can I sync my Mac to an analogue drum machine/sequencer (with MIDI out) so my Mac, which is running Reason, Live4 and GarageBand2, as the slave?
Its not a massive problem, but if it can be done, my life would be a thousand times easier! -------------------- |

The short answer is YES.
You must have a midi-interface of some kind. Konfigure your drum-machine to send MTC to your midi-in input. Konfigure your drum machine to send on a specific midi-chammel Connect the USB-Cable to your Mac. ( your midi-interface is usb-based - right?) In Audio/Midi setup make shure your Midi-Interface shows up (you run Mac OS-X Panther - like right?) IF NOT - install midi-drivers from your midi-interface manufacturer Konfigure Audio/Midi to reflect your physical midi-setup http://www.skatboet.se/skatboet/pics/midi.jpg Configure Reason to accept external clock sync from your drum-machine on the same midichannel your drum-machine is transmitting on.
