Waldorf A1, which comes as a factory synth in Cubase SX, makes great basses...it is a highly underrated synth. Also, Albino 2 is great. Novation V-Station is good but I don't use its basses a lot. If you don't have A1, let me know and I will send it to you. It is only a small DLL and the preset banks.

rgc:audio Triangle II has some good bass presets that you can fiddle around with But z3ta+ is probably better... same producer, only z3ta+ is commercial.
I'm having a problem coming up with that great bass also, but I think its just me and not the synth. Although my crappy basses sound decent after a EQ and Compression is kicked in.

Been using Synth 1. It has a nice dry sound to it and cuts through the mix pretty well. Can handle liberal comression without sounding too squashed too, which is important for basslines I find.

I recently got Albino, and I have no idea how to use it properly... any hints on how to make good basslines with it? I really need to improve my bass sounds, they're becomeing rather generic ;/
