Is there a mixer or software which sends a sync signal to a DAW?

I would like to be able to sync Live to the BPM of a song, much the same way Live can be synced to an external sequencer. Is this possible?

Hello,
This response comes from Ableton:
“These devices have beat detection engines that listen to audio and generate a MIDI clock signal.
_Mixers_
Pioneer DJM-800
Ecler NUO5
Ecler EVO5 (I think)
Allen & Heath Xone 3D
_Other_
Redsound SoundBITE micro
Allen & Heath Xone 2D
For the above devices that are not USB-based, the person will need an audio interface with a MIDI input to sync Live.
I can’t really suggest one over the other, but I’d highly recommend that people test them out before buying them, as audio > clock signal isn’t an exact science.”
