Are the words describing the actual piano itself or the piano music? |

Well, actually it describes piano samples.
I thought these are different pianos, but maybe you're right. The samples could be from the same piano, but for different kinds of music (e.g. dynamic indications, keys, reverberation,...).
Anyway, I still don't know what it stands for... |

They all look like abbreviations to me. They are really hard to understand unless they are put into context. Are there #'s/data that goes with it? |

The abbreviations separated with a slash in the topic are from the same characteristic description, so they can't stand together (e.g. either "1v" or "3v", not both at the same time).
I just found a page with the "1v" and "3v" (and other "v"s, too):
http://www.nationalbraille.org/music_Piano-Fer.htm
Could "m3" stand for minor third and "4th" for Perfect 4th? |

I guessed that too, but if m3 means minor third, then prefect 4th should be P4...
For the page you posted, I believe the "V" means the total volume in the series.
I searched and searched and found nothing much.
Good luck on your research! |
