@d-healey Thankyou, as usual your help was invaluable.
Ironically I have been using autocomplete quite a bit recently but it didn't even occur to me in this case.

Thanks again, it is doing what I want it to do now

@rzrsharpeprod
Just in case anybody stumbles across this thread in search of a solution to a similar problem I have figured it out.

I was calling it using a callback so it actually wasn't working at all.
What I had mistake for a preset loading an EQ was just how I had left the default in HISE when I exported.

Once I took it out of the callback and called it on its own it worked fine - both the default/saved in the presets that I made in HISE and any changes in DAW were retained in that project when reloading it. Happy days...

@d-healey Thank you. God bless!

@oskarsh I see what you mean, but with a decreased pad size of say 20 px, there's no problem for me...

@Christoph-Hart said in How to add lag to a knob?:

Yes, but the problem that you can't apply filters on a Container remains since I've removed the monophonic filter.

Yes a filter would be much better, I was just trying to find a workaround :)
