Polyphonic Percussion.

Just purchased this fantastic instrument, nice one CA, but is there any way to get poly percussion, if hold a chord the percussion sounds but the soloing notes there is no percussion, this is probably how a real Hammond works, but this would be a nice addition.

Yeah, "Percussion" on a real Hammond is a paraphonic effect - i.e. one 'global' envelope / VCA, through which all notes are piped. In addition, the trigger for the Percussion envelope generator is 'single' rather than 'retrigger'. This means that it won't retrigger until you release all held notes, then play a new one.
