This might be relatively easy to do (using debug) if you have Windows 
or even MS-DOS if you had a dump of a single preset in syx format.  
All you would need to do is change two bytes in the preset dump 
header.  These are the 8th and 9th bytes of the dump.

If the preset is embedded in a smf (or a .mid file), it is be more 
complex.
