- The Session View mixer after the session, with the transport stopped at bar 35. Twenty-one tracks run left to right in the order of the embeds below; the two return tracks and the Main track sit off the right edge.
- Most clip slots hold clips named "silence". The takes from the session sit on the four layers: three "1A-Aud" clips on 1A-Audio, two on 1B-Audio, two on 2A-Audio and three on 2B-Audio.
- An orange box outlines the first eight tracks and eight scenes, the part of the grid the Novation/Launchpad/Pro/Mk3 shows on its pads.
- The crossfade buttons at the bottom light A on 1n2, 1A-Audio, 2A-Audio, 1n2-Aud-Out, 3n4, 3A-Audio, 4A-Audio, B-Aud-In and B-Aud-Out, and B on 1B-Audio, 2B-Audio, 3B-Audio and 4B-Audio. The MIDI tracks, 1n2-Aud-In, commentary and the utility group have neither.
- Arm buttons are lit on 1n2, 2B-Audio, 3A-Audio, 3B-Audio, 4A-Audio, 4B-Audio, commentary, LPP to MF and MF to LPP.
- Most volume fields read -6.0 dB with a red automation dot. 1B-Audio reads 0 dB, 1n2-Aud-In -12.0 dB, and utility and SONOBUS BRIDGE 0 dB. Pans on 1A-Audio through 2B-Audio also carry automation dots.
Signal path
- The four layers record the Microfreak from external input 3. 1A-Audio, 2A-Audio and 2B-Audio send their audio to the 1n2 track; 1B-Audio goes straight to Main.
- 1n2 sums its three layers and is assigned to the crossfader's A side. 2B-Audio passes through its own B assignment and then 1n2's A assignment, so the room hears it only with the crossfader near the middle. Only 1B-Audio reaches Main from the B side alone. Ableton/Live/UG/18 Mixing/05 Using Live's Crossfader
- 3A-Audio, 3B-Audio, 4A-Audio and 4B-Audio take the outputs of 1A-Audio, 1B-Audio, 2A-Audio and 2B-Audio and feed 3n4, which also resamples Main. They hold only "silence" clips in this Set.
- 1n2-Aud-In and 1n2-Aud-Out send input 3 and 1n2 to external outputs 3/4. B-Aud-In and B-Aud-Out send input 3 and 3n4 to external output 4.
- LPP to MF carries the Launchpad Pro's channel 1 to the MicroFreak, and MF to LPP carries the MicroFreak back to the Launchpad's sequencer. 1n2-MIDI also sends to the MicroFreak, and B2-MIDI listens to 1n2-MIDI.
- commentary takes inputs 1/2 to Main. A-Reverb holds a Reverb and B-Delay a Delay. 1B-Audio and 2B-Audio send to the reverb at -6 dB, 2B-Audio also sends to the delay at -6 dB, and 1A-Audio sends to the delay at -12 dB.
