That Subtle Hip-Hop Sub Bass

[H.Quality]

Where can I find/How can I make a bass like this?

That fat Hip-Hop bass..I don't mean a sample with a low pass filter
Its used in almost every 2nd Aftermath song. Focus, Eminem, Red Spyda, ect use it pretty often.

Im assuming you have FL Studio but BooBass comes pretty close by itself. The bass in the track sounds like it has a touch of distortion on it so try this...

Open BooBass, turn your BASS Control Knob all the way up. Turn your MID down to about 9 o'clock and your TREBLE all the way down.

Open Fruity Bass Boost and tune your FREQ to around 84Hz.

Open Fruity Fast Dist and turn it down (on your mixer input only) to about 9 o'clock.

That will get you really close and then you can EQ a little to fatten it up.

Using synths. Go for a sine wave or triangle wave and add grityness with a saw wave. square and rectangle waves work too.

Typically you want to remember two elements

Smooth (Sine, Triangle) & Grit (Saw, Square, Rectangle)
Work these layers like you work drum layers, then ye shall be a winner.
