It's the Poly 800 software that is cutting the notes off when you switch from one mode to another.

There's nothing you can do to the hardware to stop that.

The HAWK-800 sustain pedal feature is one of those things that significantly improves the usefulness of the Poly-800.

Yes, that would be a solution,
but when I push hold button,it stops all sound (there is a difference between My Poly 800 and Poly 61).
So, is there a chance to cut some diode to make note still playing with switching between poly and hold modes? or something else?
Or is mistake only in my own poly800, that it stops sound by switching modes?

I'm asking for solution without hawk800.
Thank you
