Ae2 upgrading pattern providers.

Hi all I have just got back into minecraft and have been slowly progressing through atm9 but am starting to run out of space for the shear amount of patterns I am making. The solution seems to be to upgrade my existing pattern providers to the extended version but I was wondering if there is any better way to do this without taking every pattern out of my network first. Is there anything similar to the tier upgrades from mekanism for AE2?

It’s a silly question but I thought it was worth asking.
