Keyboard Bass? Yes.

Split the keyboard, and for the left side use only the first two drawbars.

But you will have only the upper manual then, no chord for the left hand...Or you use a B3 bass sample in the synth section, then, you have a "real" B3 set up, two manuals and bass...

Slot b 808000000 with split activated
Slot a for the upper manual
Slot b to the left of the split
Slot a to the right

Am I missing something :-)

He‘d like a three-way split with one area for melodic lines, one for comping (with different registration), and one for bass, I believe.

I use the upper manual with the organ preset
So I can switch between the two... not elegant :-)

Well, almost kind of, left hand bass, fast little chops on the lower manual with right hand and back and forth to the upper for the solo/melody? I do that quite a lot when it's pure jazz/blues organ...

So how do you do that on a real B3?

Same thing.
