I was playing around yesterday layering the Nord and the VC and I thought you guys might want to hear the results.
Go to the Soundclick link in my signature and listen to "Nord and Virus C layered in unison". Be sure to turn the volume down the first listen as these are quite aggressive sounds!
I just played one sound from the Nord and one sound from the VC from the same midi channel.
There are some out-board FX, but most of the FX are from the VC. I actually set it up so the nord would partially go through the VC from a send on the desk too (only some sounds though).
Enjoy.
P.S. These sounds are for the darker more harsh side of music.
