Perhaps it doesn't have that 'raw' edge, but that's not necessarily what everybody's after.
The presets veer towards the FM side of things, but I've had some pretty *dirty* sounds out of it.
The user interface is one of the best I've used. Dead easy to knock together new patches - much quicker than say my Supernova2, but perhaps not as comprehensive in the mod matrix end of things. on the NL3, you pick the destination for the mod source. On most of my other kit, you choose which mod source you want to affect the parameter you're dealing with (a la Supernova2).
Depends what you want from the machine I guess.

I have one of them little micro modular's, just so i could have a bit of the nord sound in my tracks (i used one in college and fell in love). The bugger is hard to program but i love it (just like i do my supernova). I was also thinking of getting a lead 2 key's (used), but i can get an oberheim OB-12 with about the same amount of knobs as the lead 3's for the same price. Handy for soft synths/samplers.
it's so competitive i could go on for hours

I would stick to the Lead2 ... it's a classic. And the sounds are just amazing... no need for effects, just leave it raw.
