justforfun000,
Don't worry. The patterns will be there when you've installed the new mic board. The styles are stored in the Hard Disk i.e all the styles you either created or loaded into the SD1.
To save ALL registrations on board the unit into a single back up registrations simply press SAVE/ENTER (from the default screen), REGISTRAION (F1) and screen should display "Save all registations to...". Give this block of registrations a name and save.
The FLASH styles (default ... those that first come on the fist page whenever you try to select a CUSTOM style) can be reloaded from the Hard Disk (Master Folder needs to be off), FOLDER 90 - Reload!
Thanks,
AJ
