Reply to Korg Electribe BMP Sync? How to do it?

I have a Electribe MX that Im trying to sync thru MIDI using the S4 but to no avail. I took the S4 to send MIDI clock thru midi but the Electribe wont play any music. Does anyone have experience with this? That would be perfect to create tracks on the fly with that device but even when I choose the same BPM the sound would get off rhythm.
