Im know on the V-Synth XT that they have 2 choices of output modes (I'm guessing VariOS and VC1 are the same).
One mode runs the normal V-Synth D/A output stage and the other runs the older D-50 D/As. So although the newer D/A conversion is better you can emulate the older ones perfectly for characture.
I've read a review from SOS that says they put a real D-50 and the XT-50 on an Ocsilloscope and they were exactly the same when the V-Synth ran in the older D/A mode.
I'm not sure how close you'd get to that sound on a TI though. The D-50 has it's own characture (as does the TI) and I haven't heard any of the wavetables on the TI sound like the D-50 (or visa-versa).
