I have the same clock 'drift' issues when Ableton is set as Slave. I have not had this problem with other midi devices set as master, sending master clock, just the XL-7. I have been using my gear in a serial midi loop, through a midiman 1x1. I just ordered a MOTU timepiece A/V to see if it can fix the clock issue. I would be happy to let you know my results in about a week.
