I believe mainroom house has the bad reputation it does because its basically the result of genre inbreeding.
I think that characteristic bass sound you're talking about is a picked electric bass processed quite heavily with a distortion unit. A sample library from Native Instruments played with Kontakt combined with Guitar Rig for example. You can hear a lot of these sounds on Alesso's older productions.I agree with this. its definitely a bass guitar and not a 'simple' waveform like a square or saw.
I think a great starting point for you is to watch this video of Dubvision going through Turn It Around. Make sure to enable subtitles on Youtube.
I recently found a sample of a long saw bass note in the Leviathan sample pack and by cutting it up I got that cool older electro sound. I'll try to find it for you later. But, I think that working with audio, as opposed to MIDI, in this situation works well Maybe with some LPF automation.
Try opening up a synth that you like and beefing up a low pitched saw wave and bounce it to audio, then manipulate it from there
I want to know is music theory really important to become a good Electronic Producer
Yes.
It can be incredibly fiddly to get it to work right sometimes, but jBridge is what you want for this... it will let you wrap 64 bit VSTs in 32 bit wrappers and vice versa.
Good stuff.
