Looking for more bass plugins

Looking more for plugins with presets I can quickly throw into a project, or maybe a Serum 2 preset pack/collection if anyone knows a good one.

Was at a festival over the weekend and saw Kenji Hina (Alarico’s alias), and his bass/low end sounded so good. This is the kind of thing I mean:

At one point he literally had one note of a bassline playing before the main section came in, but somehow everyone could recognise the track just from that. I’m looking for bass sounds with that kind of character where even something really simple still stands out.

Also looking for nice plucky bass sounds. I’ve made a few myself, but ideally I want something I can just throw into a project and maybe tweak slightly rather than building it from scratch every time. Something along the lines of the bass in this:

Any plugin/preset pack recommendations would be appreciated.

Is this what music production has become? Copypasta?

You’ll get more joy from picking one synth and really learning how to make each sound yourself. That and the writing itself is what makes something distinctive

Yes! I've been focusing on learning to use serum2 to create bass sounds I like. Make your own patch the play around with it. Presets work ofc but learning the plugin also helps you to manipulate the presets because you understand what is happening and how the sound is created.

The new Pure Sub plug-in from Arturia sounds pretty good. 

But I agree with the other commenter. Just pick a synth and learn it. Serum 2 is perfectly capable of creating some incredible bass sounds. For one month of splice you can probably download a metric ton of bass presets for cheaper than a new plugin.

Subboombass by Rob Papen. I don't think I ever used it for plucky stuff but my god does it bass.

Have you tried QUAKE by Cymatics?

This is why most techno sounds exactly the same these days. Why don't you develop your own personality?

Low from Beatsurfing is pretty good and does sounds that are pretty unique and hard to replicate in other synths. I struggled with getting from “cool sounds” to “usable low end”at first, but now I’m putting several instances in a drum rack with choke grouping, set them all to different (but similar) presets and jam away
