Yup, I'd just make Ableton the "Master" and the Repeater the "Slave" as Live's sync out seems solid. I just started using Live 5 so I can't think of the exact path to set it to output midi clock, but a quick check of the manual should help... or you can do as I do and poke around until you find it. Perhaps it defaults to sending MIDI clock anyway. I'm not sure. Then set the Repeater to "MIDI" for the sync and you're done. You'll see the Repeater's tempo display go to what Live is set to and viola, you're done. I think you'll find this much, much better than Beat Detect mode and all it will cost you is the price of a midi cable.
