Thanks guys!
Justin, the bass is a piano (truepianos, no release) playing the bassline, the 5th an octave up and the octave of the bassline. It is playing 16th notes and has OTT (bout 50%), FF Saturn 3rd preset with the mix knob down to about 50 and has guitar rig's tremolo synced to 1/16th with intensity 70%. There is also a sub, just a saw lowpassed with no processing. There is also a guitar (nexus ebass 3) with some guitar rig distortion (very light). They are all sidechained.
For the slap bass in my track outbreak, it's a sample from some pack which has the prefix DHS (disco house? can't remember what it's called exactly). It has a guitar rig bass preset on it, OTT about 50% and waves rbass to make it not sound thin. Any slap bass will do really, it's all about finding a good rhythm and processing that works. I usually use kontakt factory bass guitars now, or even nexus guitar expansion. In my cover of MNIAC, the offbeat 'slap' thing I used is actually the tom called 'weird tom' in my sample pack (if you don't have this I can send you it) with some OTT.
The riser in my cover is just a distorted supersaw pitching up slowly, I don't remember the details and am not at production PC at the moment so I will post the preset tomorrow.
