yes… you can to som degree. you can sync midi by using a midi clock device of sorts. for audio, you can route them together, i don’t know what you mean by syncing. if its syncing tracks together in ableton, you may have to go the midi clock way. ---

im asking if i can sync 2 laptops , with 2 sound cards , to one master midi clock. it could be externally , or make one setup the master. im not talking about using ableton at all, this would be for 2 DJs playing together with traktor with 3 decks each, mixed with controllers , on internal mixing mode. ---

You can use Traktors built in midi I/O to do it over midi cable, wifi or wired network [https://www.native-instruments.com/en/support/knowledge-base/show/671/how-to-synchronize-two-instances-of-traktor-pro-running-on-two-computers/](https://www.native-instruments.com/en/support/knowledge-base/show/671/how-to-synchronize-two-instances-of-traktor-pro-running-on-two-computers/) [http://blog.dubspot.com/how-to-sync-2-traktor-systems-w-dj-endo-pt-1-manual-sync/](http://blog.dubspot.com/how-to-sync-2-traktor-systems-w-dj-endo-pt-1-manual-sync/) [http://blog.dubspot.com/djing-w-friends-–-how-to-sync-2-traktor-systems-w-dj-endo-pt-3-networking-2-macs/](http://blog.dubspot.com/djing-w-friends-%E2%80%93-how-to-sync-2-traktor-systems-w-dj-endo-pt-3-networking-2-macs/) ---
