I've played them both too, Impulse, and I agree...the VK8 is much better than the G70.
Perhaps it has to do with the action of the keys which are perfect for organ, or perhaps the sound engine has been upgraded since the G70 came out.
Just to fair, I did like the XK-1 a lot, too...really great Leslie sim.
I agree that the Roland keybed, ala G70 is great for organ and most piano playing. But, Roland really screwed up when they inserted the VK8 engine into the arrangers. They didn't use the complete guts - and that sucks. For me, the lackluster performance of the G70's drawbars (which are still better than most)took away almost all my need and desire for the G70.
