you have to boot it up as D50,when you do so you cant use the V synth engine at the same time.
when you want the V synth you have to boot it up again.

So what! There's nothing stopping you recording the D-50 to audio, then sending the sample to the V-synth OS.

Being closer to the original is what I'd be chasing for an emulation rather than features. And the VC1 is exact (not like some crappy minimoog softie).

btw,was the D50 one of the first virtual analogs? or was it the JD800 ?

Well I wouldn't consider either of them VAs really. There's a difference between VA and PCM based synths. The 800s are cool synths though - unforuntately the prices have rocketed to the point of "not worth it".
