Cheers! Thanks for listening.
I had an old channel mixer where I could have a line coming in which was just the mic picking up the birds and traffic and could have this fed into my external soundcard and this fed into one channel on Ableton. I could only here it through headphones. Some of synth playing was recorded in an armed track - in arrangemnet view on Albeton - so later in the track I simply replayed some of the recorded synth lines but edited some of the midi notes as it was playing back. I had the Ableton Push device so was also controlling some of the effects and the sort of Orb-ish spacey ambient sound which was just loops of pre-prepared ambient sounds I had used the night before at the gig.
