a bit like an arduinoboy needs to be put on the right mode so does the usb connector it needs to be set onto MIDI mode, which is done in temrinal, but im having trouble

Quick "how to":

1. Open a terminal window
2. Change directories to the the unzipped nlmidi_04 folder that you downloaded from nanoloop.com
3. Type "nlmidi04" to run the program
4. (there will be some text instructing you to plug in the adapter or whatever and the syntax of the commands you can use)
5. For what you want to do you will then type "-SYNC" with all caps
6. (there will be some text telling you that it worked or it didn't)
7. Close the terminal window
8. Done.

should work with LSDJ

See i think my main problem is I don't understand how to use the terminal correctly

You can only send sync TO the gameboy.  Not from. If you're using LSDj, make sure you have it set to either midi or slave mode (experiment with which one works better for you, I had pretty variant results when I was trying stuff like this) and set up the adapter as a midi device.  Press start in ableton, and it should work.

To set it to a specific mode, use the utility (download: Win / Mac version) with the following commands:"

That's the page that made me buy it, says it can sync with any program.. maybe only nanoloop can and not LSDJ I will try again with Nanoloop instead to be sure

couldnt even get the gameboy to trigger the start of Ableton live
