Try this trick -- it works on almost any clone:

85 8000 000 percussion Normal, Slow, 2nd

It's not going to fool anyone in a blind test, but it will suffice in an ensemble setting, if push comes to shove. To make this idea work well, 1) you must play a bit more staccato than normal piano riffs, and 2) the LH bass line should be played on the other manual.

If your organ/clone is set up to NOT drop the drawbar volume on Normal percussion, change the settings to 64 6000 000.

Regards,
