The implementation of length 13 is not finalised, and I haven't updated the
'set length' event yet.

The aux values are always stored as a number from 0 to 127.
The value is scaled to the required range depending on which event is
selected.
If I were to change to range of the 'set length' event to 13, existing
patterns which had values of 12 in there could then become 13.
So the final implementation of 'drone' will need a caveat that any 'set
length' values may need to be revisited.
