Does anyone use either of these with their MPC? I'm wondering which has the best sound for "cutting through a mix". I will be using it for Dn'B and new school breaks. I'm currently using the Korg MS2000 as my only outboard synth. The midi basslines I'm making, even after outboard processing with an aphex 204, don't punch through the way i would like. Also, if anyone has any cool bassline tricks with midi using the MPC let me know.

I have read form a pro source that the nords have good mid range tones that cut thru mixes, but for basslines i would think that real analog stands out, lots of low end thats hard to get with the va's.

For DnB the virus is standard.

I'd pick that over the nord any day of the week.
