Sending MIDI Beat Clock Over IAC

Pro Tools can transmit MIDI Beat Clock to synchronize external MIDI devices that receive MIDI Beat Clock (such as drum machines, hardware sequencers, or arpeggiators) with the Pro Tools session tempo for playback and recording. Some instrument plug-ins also support MIDI Beat Clock for synchronizing to the Pro Tools tempo.

For information about synchronizing external MIDI devices with Pro Tools for playback and recording using MIDI Timecode, see Generating Timecode.
