It's quite easy to do in Logic, for example.

if you don't want to make any further adjustments to the sounds, or modulation, then sampling - like Berni said - is the way to go for sure!
Hey synth-heads! Have been working on compositions and learning a lot in Reaper as I go and reason been away for a bit and to remain OT, this ability (or, obviously not) to have a split as OP asked was racking my brain as well. I too was thinking outside of a multi set-up, and thanks for the useful posting about doing it within the DAW.
As advanced as the Virus KC is and it's variously cool midi modes I am frankly surprised this is not possible when just about any and every synth in my arsenal can do that, even a recent trash find from 1985, a Korg DW8000 analog/digital hybrid with an analog filter to DIE for and also has built-in digital delay....yep, it was in dumpster WITH power cord....so I HAD to plug her in with trepidation and work perfectly....anyway, 1985 and able to split sounds on defined parts of split board...8 poly but do not need much for bass.
Is this physical inability to make a split throughout whole Virus line? Funny, I was coming back to visit here to search for this after re-reading user manual several times almost going MAD thinking I *must have* missed it somewhere!!
Well, I need to tackle learning to do multi set-ups in DAW/Reaper with Virus anyway because it seems that it would be much easier through DAW rather than all on physical keyboard. Any tips you have learned along way with this would be much appreciated.
Am finding it hard to allow time or sleep, this is SO fracking fun!
