Hello. As it is I will probably be buying a Nord Modular quite soon. Whether it will be the keyboard or the rack version I am as of yet unsure. I would like any opinions you might have reguarding this synth. My real question however is this.

If I have the Nord Modular, is there any reason for me to purchase the Nord Lead II?

OK, I currently have a JP8000 and a Prophecy and would like to have another virtual synth and the Nord Lead II would be a nice added sound [yes, I have heard that the Virus is better, but I would like this one to be a keyboard] But I guess the main reason for the Nord Lead to have caught my eye is that I have seen a pic of the Modular rack on top of the Nord Lead II and I really can't say anything more than it was love at first sight. Now, I believe that I am correct in assuming that the Nord Lead would make a great controller for the Modular but would it be overkill. The Modular is a modular synth and can recreate the Lead along with really any other synth.

Well, let me know what you think.
