START: render transposed clips with Freeze/Flatten, TEMPO leader clips at their own tempo
Tested in Live on copies of 261101 (2026-10-26): - Edit > Consolidate cannot be aimed at one clip from a script (no LOM selection; Edit > Select Loop selects every track, so Consolidate merged the SECTIONS markers and lighting cues). Each pitched track is now Freeze Track + Flatten Track (same audio: the stems have no devices), warp off, named like Consolidate names it; the Freeze tail clips and "(Freeze)" track names are removed. Groups unfolded to select, refolded. - The TEMPO label clips lead the song tempo (IsSongTempoMaster): START renamed the base set's 143 clip without its warp markers, so Live played 261101 at 143 and consolidating rendered songs at the wrong length. lead_tempo() makes the markers match the BPM. - AbletonOSC commands match Live's numbered/stamped track names; new refold and drop_tails commands. - A run that stopped picks up flattened clips; START's look runs before the ROUTING/IN EARS reads.

**The tempo matters**: a transposed clip is warped, so it is rendered at the tempo Live plays there. With the

TEMPO label clips leading at a wrong tempo (step 4) a song is rendered at the wrong length.
