Nordlead 3 hands down. The Access sounds very nice too, but it isn't special in the way the Nord is. I'm more torn between the NL3 or the Nord Modular Keyboard. I have a micromod, but I'd love the polyphonic portamento with legato on the NL3, Unison with no loss of polyphony and the cool knobs
What I'm trying to say is, you can't go wrong with either one, but the Nord has some special features lacking on the Virus.
