4.3. Syncing MASCHINE+ using Ableton Link

Ableton Link is a protocol that synchronizes beat, phase, and tempo of Link-enabled applications

on the same computer, or over a shared network. This means you can conveniently keep

applications synchronized across different devices or join a group jam with others with minimal

setup. Connecting applications via Link provides you with the ability to synchronize them to a

shared timeline and change the tempo globally from each of the connected applications.
