CHAPTER 24. SYNCHRONIZATION AND REWIRE 353
The External Sync
Switch.
When Live is synced to an external MIDI device, it can accept song position pointers from
this device, syncing it not only in terms of tempo but in terms of its position in the song. If
the master jumps to a new position within the song, Live will do the same. However, if the

access the Time Ruler Format sub-menu.
The MIDI Timecode Offset setting is also only relevant if MIDI Timecode is chosen from
