Some digital pianos/keyboards have a “split” feature, which lets you put an instrument on the left hand and a different instrument on the right hand.
For pianos that don’t support this but support MIDI it seems to me that it should be entirely possible to emulate this behaviour in a synthesiser, but searching online I couldn’t really find anything about this. All I found was pianos that supported splitting the keyboard into two separate MIDI channels, but that won’t work.
Is there any way of doing this, preferably on like LMMS or something? Or any software that can get a MIDI channel and split it into two channels depending on the key that is pressed on the piano?
On Linux and open source, please

Surprise find on the bottom of my box of audio cables. I’ve probably never used it… I don’t have any #MIDI devices around, but it’s still recognized by macOS, so I guess it works, even though the package says it requires a “PowerPC G3 CPU with 233 MHz or higher clock speed.”
