I'm looking for tips on how to sync 4 computers (all running Ableton). I found a 4x4 midi sync device ( http://www.zzounds.com/item--MDOMID4X4AE ), but not really interested in spending that much money.
Has anyone here done this or know of someone who's done it before? Does anyone know of other ways that work besides midi sync (like midi over lan)? Any info in general would be greatly appreciated.

From what I've been told by the people who have done this is you basically link the computers up through midi over lan, get the metronome going and adjust the latency to match the beat. Simple enough, hope it works out  http://soundcloud.com/ascensionsound

The times we'v tried to sync computers over midisport( midi lan) and adjust latency manualy it just isnt perfecty synced to the master midi clock .
Although the minimal diffrences -that are audible-, this will not stop you from jamming with a few computers.
Hope that ableton adresses this in the future, to make a way that locks external computers perfect to the masters internal midi clock.
Maybe someone has a better way of doing this?
