Check DOA they have plenty of shit in there on bass. it wont be reason specific, but as long as the description gives a litle detail about waveforms and filter settings im sure you can get the rest of it..

Try a little distortion. and a touch of unison.. should give you a bit of grit..

that's the spirit ;
have to add this ---> try multiple distortions ; for ex.
if usin fl (wich is not the case but u can still rewire Big Grin ) ; get deltaforce distortion / blood overdrive (compresses while it distorts so it's easy to level) an the sony distortion (comes with soundforge)
gives some badass results Devil

I'd say avoid distortion if you can, if you can program synth good enough and use the right effects it will sound better.. matter of taste perhaps, - some mono chorus and good equaliser is the key, distortion/saturation is good when you want to control dynamics but when it's too much it just spoils the sound.

well my point is that often people think that more distortion makes dirtier and "heavier" tunes when it actually just makes it noisy and stupid Smile it's a fine art to use it well
