how to emulate NordModular and NordLead with Virus C?

[Hollowcell]

I personally don't think you can emulate a Nord that well with a Virus.
I have a Virus C and a Nord Lead 2 and they both are very different.

The Nord can scream when Syncing FM - the Virus does, but definitely not the same characture.
The Nord has a much heavier bass presence that the Virus - not much will help you get that unfortunately.
Also the Nord Notch/LP filter config is amazing. Wish my Nord had an input for this filter alone!

And then if you go the other way.
The Virus can do pads which the Nord can not touch.
Great synced LFOs and mod routing are possible with the Virus - not the Nord lead 2.
Using the LFOs on the Virus in envelope mode rocks - Nord2 can't do this.

Although the Virus is damn flexible, I still think they are two very synths with two very different charactures. The Nords are so cheap that maybe it's worth picking one up.
