turns out I am crazy, but not completely. My patch was using ‘pattrstorage’ linked to a ‘presets’ object. The ‘pattrstorage’ did execute the copy command properly, but the ‘presets’ object deleted the dot representing the saved slot. I was recalling the presets via the ‘presets’ object, so having a missing ‘dot’ did not allow me to recall the preset, so that is why I was under the impression that the preset was gone….
