probably the best way to do this is to slave Pam's to Ableton (or any other DAW)
create an audio track in your DAW and paste a kick drum sample on every 16th note... send this to an output on your audio interface - you may need to mess around a bit with volume to get it to work properly
save this as a template - so you can use it for other sessions in the future - tempo should properly match session tempo, it does for me in Logic
patch the audio output to the clock in on Pam's and set up Pams to use 4ppqn (parts per quarter note) and to run/stop on receipt of clock
this will give you much more solid clock than using midi in (audio always has higher priority in computer operating systems than midi)
