HI
Try playing 2 octaves apart, and use an extremely heavy compression on the piano.
you won't get this out of just Pianoteq, you'll need a comp plug in, or similar.
cheers jeff

Re: very special piano sound !

for a such "piano" sound, which is behind a strong rapp mix,
no need to use Pianoteq !
A simple GM midi piano and a gate plugin will do exactly the same.

Pianoteq is for some more... subtile musics.
