No !
If it would, there would be a warning in bold letters in the update instructions.

But if you really love your sounds, why not make a back-up just before the OS update. Once you connected to a sequencer it only takes you a minute or two.
I do so before every OS update.
keep on turning these Moog knobs

I use midi-ox for this, but it shouldn't be a problem.

Hi,
I prefer pure Sys-Ex programms for this kind of job too.
And these tools are freeware.

But the Voyager Editor is also a great tool forthis. But not freeware at all.

I'm looking forward too purchase the editor in the fall, but i want to train my patching skills by doing things manualy. I work the whole day behind a cumputer so when doing the synth thing i want to work hands on. :)

Midi-Ox is perfectly fine for sending the operating system and backing up presets.
