the nl is a hands on synth
its meant to program complex sounds in minutes
the nm needs more time to program and you have less knob controll for programing after you hock it off the computer something you wont realy do if your going to use it only inside your studio.
acually i would get the nord modular insted of the nord lead because it can do 50 times more stuff then the nl in thory and im sure its also in action just ask juho...
