Make a good Piano synth

Dalmazzo's icon

I'm searching for a tutorial or example on how to make a good Piano synth, I'm trying to avoid VST plugins because I would need to add some elements to the sound dynamically.
Any suggestion?
Thanks for the help

Agree. With no VST/AU plugins allowed... fluidsynth~ (and a high quality soundfont containing piano programs) will be best and simplest solution.
