That is certainly true of the auxes within a single track, and I recommend
if you're modifying one track to do it from an earlier track, since they are
processed in numerical order.
You can affect an earlier track from a later one, although some events might
not do quite what you expect, and it's easier to keep track of what's going
on.

For tricks involving the unmuting of tracks which will then start mangling
other tracks, you should be looking at the 'push' and 'swap' events, and
also the 'auxes to trk n'.
I'm being a single parent today, so no time to go into depth I'm afraid.
