sorry if this is old news... I see ascenders connected via carabiner. A metal to metal contact that can be noisy... I loop a small accessory chord (the one in this pic is a bit long) through and it's silent. Maybe this helps others... I also eliminated some tubular webbing by using the same rope/ascender arrangement for the saddle as I do for the linemans belt while ascending.
In case of safety concern and redundancy... I don't switch the rope to support my weight on saddle until I'm hooked on the tether with a climbing harness.
