I do like this.
Step one.
Layer one.
A dry bottom end around 40 - 80hz , play around with eq and Audiorealism Bassline.
Layer Two.
A mid bass with some delay and reverb around 125hz, play around with eq, delay, reverb and some stereoexpansion to get that egde that cuts through the mix, and also bring some warmth, Novation V-station is good here.
Layer Three.
A high bass with more delay and reverb around 4000-8000hz, not much of this, just to get some air and clarity and fills the mix more. Here i use ReFX Beast, got that sharp and wide sound.
Step Two
And its important to listen so that the kick gets the room in the bottom that it needs.To make it a bit more present Cut around cut at 35z AND give it a little boost at the same range 35hz, then you can cut at 150hz to take away some of the rumble, last you can give it a small boost around 2500hz to get it more agressive.
I dont compress the kick, but i depends on how good the kick is, but i usually dont.
Step three.
Here i have created a RETURN/SEND track in my sequencer (Live 5), and i name it BASSCOMP. Put in a compressor, here i use Waves Renaissance Compressor with these settings.
Manuel/Electro/Smooth
Attack: 0.50
Release: 80.3
Treshhold: -8.0
Ratio: 8.09
Gain: 0.0
Step four:
I set the KICK, BOTTOM LAYER + MID LAYER, to SENDS ONLY, in this case the BASSCOMP, i leave the high bass as it is.
So now you can star mixing, and remember that its often the quality of the sound that makes the diffrens, and it makes your work easyer.
And where u put the notes.
Its not pretty, but it works for me :P
Cheers

The point with basslayering is to make all three sounds work togheter in all freq, like a "toast" 
. And then its a matter on how you program your basses and put the cords right. I often have a different sound pattern on the subbass, and another on the highs and mids. A simple |k|bbb| or |k|bb| makes a nice drive in the bottom,a nd make it work tight togheter with the kick low ends. and the highs you can use a pattern like (1 oct up from sub) |k|bb|B|k or something llike that. One that plays 2 oct.
