is it true that cakewalk cannot work as an mtc master? internal or audio sync within cakewalk and drag an external device along by mtc.

cakewalk slaving to mtc works fine. just cant send it.

I think you're wrong. From the Cakewalk help system:

To Use MIDI Sync with Cakewalk as the Master

1. Configure your external MIDI device to receive MIDI Sync.

2. Click the MIDI or Aud button in the Sync toolbar to use the MIDI or Audio clock source.

3. Choose Options-Global and click the MIDI Out tab.

4. Check the Transmit MIDI Start/Continue/Stop/Clock box.

5. For most applications, check the Transmit MIDI Song Position Pointer box.

6. If you are using a drum machine to play patterns or loops, check the Use Start, Never Continue option, and disable the Transmit MIDI Song Position Pointer option.

7. Click OK when you are done.

From now on, the transport controls in Cakewalk control playback on the external MIDI devices.

MIDI sync, yes... but I think Cake can only slave to MTC
