Demo sound vs actual

Hi all,

Since recently downloading standard version I have noticed that changing settings such as microphone setup changes the sounds in the blues demo song.  I thought this to be an excellent guide to help setup your piano settings. When I then play the physical piano it sounds nothing like the demo piano I setup (sound not my playing ability!).  Am I missing something?

Also, playing through headphones (sienheiser eh250) any recommendations on getting a great balanced sound through them? At the moment things sound /feel a bit distant like playing in a big hall. Tried reverb settings & binaural. Might be I need to sort out velocity? I've tried calibration but not impressed with it so far.

Thanks all..
