Hold Pedal problem

[froggy54]

Hi everyone,
Just bought a 8HD from Digital Village in the UK. Great synth for the price for sure !
I have a problem with my Roland Hold Pedal, it seems that the polarity on the fusion in inverted. When I press the pedal, the sound stops and when I release the pedal the sound is held.
No way to change the polarity on my pedal. Do I need to buy a new one with a polarity switch or some hidden menu somewhere on the fusion ?
Thanks in advance Fusioneers !

Do you plug the pedal into the Fusion whilst it's turned on? If so, try plugging it in whilst it's turned off, then turn it on - as far as I know, the Fusion can test for polarity, but only does so at boot time.
