Will the sound of my patches change when updating from firmware v1.31 to 2.32?

[wonko_the_sane]

I love my HD 500 but I am receiving a message that my tones might be affected by the firmware upgrade. Does anyone know if this will happen, and if I do the update and things are affected will rolling back to 1.31 resolve any sound changes that might occur?

 

Also, is there a firmware version history that shows what changes and updates come with each version?

Thanks for any input!

just to be sure, the latest firmware is 2.32, not 1.32.  I  found no tone differences and from the support page there should be no sonic differences:

Although there should be no sonic impact to existing patches as a result of this update, it is recommended that you connect to the POD HD500 Edit application and back up any patches you may wish to keep as a precaution.
