Help needed to create a commercial sounding bassline sound

Heya

Ive upped some examples from songs, which got the sound that im after , Its the real commercial german vocal trance style.

Sample 1

Sample 2

Sample 3

Is there anyone kind enough to help me get that sound right?
Ive tried a lot with multiple vst's but cant seem to find a way to get the sound im looking for

Thanks!

Pattern is easy K-b-K-b-K-b-K with little delay fx.
Seems like all basslines are little HP filtered (maybe layered with HP filtered sound) and SAW waveform. Sample3 was different.

Sorry i know this post is not helpful.
But I don't deleted it

Here's something which starts with a kick which already has some bass. Then there's the afterbeat bass and third you hear a whoomp bass. This is all compressed. It could use some eqing.

thanks for the example , but its way to rough. I think its not really hard to get a special d like ( sample 2 ) bassline sound , when you know how to do it that is lol

Is there anyone willing to give a short explaining how to create such a sound?

its basically a square wave and distortion, there is a similar preset in zeta somewhere, il upload a sample sometime and explain it, its not that hard

the preset in zeta is called simplest, use it, and try it, but you can take 3osc too, here is it:
