Yes, I think Midi Beat Clock is What I need...
I am just looking at Freewheeling, because it looks like it can sync with
ableton Live trough midi. So I guess it can send Midi Beat Clock...

Hi,
I am Quite surprised that nobody ever tried to sync 2 computers by midi.
I performed some tests with one computer with rosegarden and a Hardware
sequencer remixerr (yamaha RM1-X).
In the RM1-X, I can choose sync mode between Intern (like a master), midi
and MTC. When I choose Midi, the tempo setting is not available anymore, and
the synchro with rosegarden is perfect (transport + tempo). increasing the
tempo in Rosegarden also increase the tempo in the RM1-X.
When I choose MTC on RM1-X, the transport start with rosegarden, but I
always can modify the tempo. And even if I choose the same tempo, there is
some time shift few minutes later.
In the other hand, When I make the RM1-X as a master, the transport is
synchro but Rosegarden keep is own tempo. So it is unusable.
I don't know very well the MTC protocol, but isn't there a way to sync the
Tempo with it ?
MTC is basically SMPTE time code over MIDI. So I guess the answer is no.

I guess what you're looking for is MIDI beat clock.
