get hold of a pitch to frequency table and check what notes give a good frequency and scope for basslines.
You wanna work with Hz of less than 100 so there is room for your Kick above it.
if C is your main note you get one @65Hz, octave below is 32.5Hz or octave above 130Hz.
this means you are kinda stuck with 65Hz because above will clash with your kick and below you will only hear in Club...
It will still work but bear that in mind..
I find a G works nice with main @49Hz giving Octave @97hz
an E, F or F# will give you lower 40Hz which will give you an Octave below your Kick
EQing will help but you should try to EQ harmonically and use frequencies which are inherant to the Key of your track...

I'm so easily sold on synths though. The last thing I really need is more synths lol. All it takes is a promo video with some awesome sounds and I want it

E,D and F are usually my sweetspot. i like the way your thinking about this. im the same way, get the spectrum analyzer out and really be precise with how the sub and kik are interacting. makes a big difference

Yeah I checked this out when I watched the interview with Mala, and i have to say it's a bloody sweet synth. However, I do think it makes things a bit too easy for me, which is why I'm sticking with sylenth. Once I know how to create phat basses, then I might move to trilian, as I really love it's sound and filters (my god its filters are nice).
I have Trillian. Best joint purchase I ever made, except for Omnisphere, but I cant fit both on my home Mac. £300 for the greatest synth on earth. 50 odd GB of double/acoustic bass sounds and 10GB of just about every worthy hardware synth ever invented. Highly recommended, runs sweet even on my home box (basic 2010 Mac mini), and is responsible for about half of my self made sounds!
And @amphibian, this is levels apart from Sylenth, theres a couple of sampled synths like the Metasonix Assblaster (best name ever) that you just cant recreate.
