Normally I would use the aux D accumulator to mask another event until a
given number of passes, but since the event you want to mask is an aux D
offset, you can't do it directly.
What you could do, is use the aux D accumulator on another track.
I'll need to think about the precise wya of doing that though...

You need use an accumulator mask of the gates on these steps, and a random
offset abs of the accumulator.

Set aux A to "Rndmz aux B". Set only step 1 active with a value of 2.
Set aux B to "offset abs xD". Set only step 1 active with a value of 0.
With these events set, each time you pass step 1, the aux D accumulator is
set to a random value od either 0, 1 or 2.

Now assign aux C to "mask gate,dAcc>n".
Working through this example has reminded me I need to change the
description of these events...
This one *should* be called "mask gate, dAcc>=n". I'll fix that in the
release build proper.

Anyway, this event means a step will not play unless the current value of
the aux D accumulator is greater than or equal to the aux C value for the
step.
Set aux C active on step 2 with a value of 2, and on step 3 with a value of
1.

Now if the aux D accumulator is 0, only step 1 will play.
If xDAcc is 1, steps 1 and 3 will play.
If xDAcc is 2, steps 1, 2 and 3 will play.

The accumulator value is random, so you get a random choice of step 1, step
1 and 3, or step 1, 2 and 3, as you wanted.

I'm not entirely sure what you mean here - are you talking about grabbing a
knob value to redirect to an aux, with a different knob assigned to each
step ?
That sounds like something that a pattern macro would be useful for.
