If you wish to sculpt a sub $1000 electronic imitation of a piano, try reducing the dynamic range slider down from 30+dB to less than 10dB dynamic range, to rob the piano of any real "life" in its sound. Next, go to the equalizer and reduce the bass response, so the sound has no bottom end. Set all three hammer hardness levels to their maximum values (yes, even the soft hammer) so that you won't have any control over the pianos nuance of sound. Then boost the Q lever to ruin all sense of harmonics response to the instrument. Turn down any mechanical noises (pedal noise, key release noises ... to their lowest values). If you are able to get into the virtual microphone's placement, you might try switching from stereo .... over to mono.
That's about it: a perfectly ruined piano sound that is lifeless, unresponsive and tinny sounding.
Cheers,
Joe
