    the bass station is a mono synth , so will only play one note at a time , i believe both the virus and nord are polyphonic .

    ok quick run down:

    virus = jack of all trades (aparently) and currently very popular. rich sounding.

    nord lead = good for bright cutting sounds but you're better off getting a nord modular if you want something to grow with. it will will also give you the nord lead type sounds if you wish.

    bass station = zzzzzz. pretty limited i guess.

    I bought a Virus C for £400 off ebay (abslotley mint condition) and I have to say, believe the hype. It really is that good in my opinion. Couldn't say how it sizes up against your other choices, haven't had the pleasure to use them I'm afraid
