Nothing I've tried on the Montage's MIDI settings or in the DAW seems to be working.

I'm connected through USB, and I want the Montage to sync to whatever my DAW's (Ableton) tempo is. Any additional information welcome as well on how best to match arpeggiator.

Alrightie then!

For others reading this.

On the MONTAGE screen you can touch the QuarterNote/Tempo area to shortcut to the "Tempo Settings" screen.
Your MIDI SYNC functions are found here.

MIDI SYNC can be MIDI, Internal, or from the A/D Input

When working with any computer DAW software you would set the software as the master MIDI Clock, and set MONTAGE to MIDI SYNC = MIDI
Hint: many computer softwares do not activate MIDI Clock by default. Software is often defaulting to a condition that uses the least CPU resources, so you may have to actively turn MIDI Clock On, and you will need to direct it to MONTAGE-1 (MIDI Port 1).

Alternate Method:
Press [UTILITY] > "Settings" > "MIDI I/O" > set MIDI SYNC = MIDI

All MONTAGE's clocked functions will fall in line... this includes the Play/Rec function, the Arpeggiators, the Tempo driven Effects and LFOs, Motion Sequences, etc.
