My friend tell me that I'd better buy a NL2 and a NL3.thay can give me different's sound?

With a statement like this, you are trolling for trouble on this board. :? J/K
The nord does have a different sound than the virus. To my ears, it is much brighter and not as dark. Defenitely dont think it is more powerful than the virus, especially after hearing the TI. Everyone is entitled to their own opinion though.
Here's a suggestion: Get the Nord then!

Nords are bright, not dark. Nord is bright and cutting, when Virus is dark, warm and more "backgroundish". Nords tend to shear through everything (afterall they are Nordleads), and that's one reason why you rarely see any other VA than Nordleads in bands.

A combination of them both wouldn't be wrong an any way - An Virus Kb + an nordrack 2 would be a perfect setup.

Yep, I agree. I usually use my Virus for moody sounds with heaps of movement. I use the Nord for the penetrating lines and recently bass in my tracks.

The NL2 (and the other older nords) do sound different to the NL3 I've heard. My friend has an NL3 and a Nord micro modular, and in his latest tracks he uses the micro modular for bass over the NL3. He told me that the micro modular can put out better bass than the 3.

Having a Virus and a Nord is a great combo. They both are very full characture VAs, but can do very different sounds.

Mmm, penetrating..

Ive run a N3 with a Virus KC for about 4 weeks. My conclusions were (and plz bear in mind i prefer true analog polys)

Virus KC: Darker, warmer, more atmospheric, more powerful in terms of sound complexity.

Nord 3: Bright, digital, more 'happy' sounding.....

*If you want to make happy sounding synth pop sounds the Nord 3 does a more convincing job. If you need dark atmosphere (which kinda resembles old Sequential/Oberheim analog synths then the Virus wins out. If VA is your cup of tea then the Virus and N3 are the nicest combo.

Just when I thought we'd finished talking about monkeys, 303 steps up for the challenge.

Aye. Monkeys and sex - great combo for both sounds and knob-tweaks

Thanx everyone:)
I think you all are right:)
I have another question.
I have a emu e6400 and I will go a AKAI S5000/6000.can I use them to read some vintage analog sound,and cannect a sherman filterbank behind them?In this way can I become some wonderfull sound?
