Hello HAWK-800 customers,
A new firmware update (version 2.4.6) has been released and is now available for you.
This firmware upgrade puts the finishing touches on the new sequencer functions.
It also improves the note ON event response time of the HAWK-800 by reducing the lag from about 50mS per note to about 12mS per note as compared to the original Poly-800. At 12mS, it is not very easy to detect any lag at all (and many of you didn't detect the 50mS lag either). The most benefit is probably going to be those who play chords on the HAWK-800 keyboard. The lag per note drops even further to about 8mS as chords are being played.
You can download the ZIP file that contains the new code along with the new documentation from here:
