That's definitely clearer, thanks.  So auxD = the D accumulator,
whatever accumulator is active in the D slot?  It's just a raw integer
value under the hood, regardless of what it's accumulating?

Also, if I haven't explicitly activated an accumulator in D, is it
just treated as a zero value?

Thanks for helping to explain this part.  It seems like a powerful feature.

Which sort of leads me to my next question, once I've got a
complicated sequence running with a bunch of accumulators, masks,
randomize events etc, it can get pretty tricky to unroll what's going
on, particularly if I come back to the P3 after a while.  Any tips for
keeping things straight or is it just a question of keeping focused
and paying close attention?  There's no way to temporarily mute some
or all aux events or anything like that, right?
