Luis, What sort of problems are you having when trying sync mobius and ableton? I have no issues with mobius as the master, other than sometimes a loop that I hear as a single bar ends up as two bars in ableton (or vice versa, can't remember which right now). BPM sync is solid and seems to re-sync at the start of the loop.
