There will still be residual services on the slow lines to/from Liverpool
St
in the peaks, Crossrail doesn't replace all of the existing service, so
the total number of trains into Liverpool St (ie high and low level
conbined) should be somewhat greater than now.
The Network Rail 2nd gen RUS for London and the SE covers the subject,
and
suggests that 8 current services are removed in the high peak hour to
make
room for the 12 Crossrail.


IMHO, it would be better to move entire service groups over to
Crossrail. Passengers will still pass thru Liverpool Street.


You can't do that if you haven't the capacity. There is only space on
Crossrail for 12 tph off the GE slows, and the future timetable has a peak
service of 6tph running from Gidea Park into Liverpool St (HL) as well.

This as shown in the Crossrail Track Access Option Schedule 2 - on NR's
website.
