Each step has both a value and a status bit for each aux.
You can send controllers or trigger events without needing to have a note on
that step.
So the red (or potentially green) LEDs in aux mod just show the status bit
is set. The value is always present.
In many cases you wouldn't have auxes on steps without notes, but not in all
cases.

I guess ties could be always shown in green when the key mode is on gate.
Maybe via a user config option.
