Oh yes it does. You can switch between Internal and Auto. But the different arp modes are a bit tricky: in one-shot mode only the tempo is synced. But it starts playing in the moment you press the keys. In hold mode it starts in sync but it keeps playing unsynced after stopping the DAW. Then when starting it again it sometimes playes out of sync. But in normal mode it works fine. 🙂 Just compared it with the Microfreak: there is a similiar issue in hold mode when restarting the DAW. So maybe it is a general thing when using an arp with hold.
