I can get the Alesis and Yamaha to start from DP but only in DP is not slaved to the Tascam. Well I can get the Tascam to start DP with DP set to slave to it. Have the DP slaved to the Motu and the DP send out MIDI clock to the Alesis and Yamaha.

Other than sell the Muto and get something else or he said I might try using Digital Performer Lite as a go between. Went on tech support and he guessed the problem was the Motu only sends MTC while the Yamaha and Alesis are looking for MIDI clock. Could get the Yamaha and Alesis to start each other either way slave/master but not from the Motu. Tried to get to work with the Yamaha and Alesis and no go. And then yes the Moto will track to it and send out MIDI timing.

So reading up on old school got a Motu Micro Express. This normally works fine but if I am into the project and decide I want to change the backing track I get into sync issues because the Tascam has no MIDI function. I normally do my backing tracks on the Yamaha and once good record as a stereo backing track to the Tascam and then record live tracks, guitar-vocal-keys as tracks on the Tascam.
