Trying to find a specific live Top-40 sound
 
Hey guys, I am looking for a way to get my bass to sound like the types of bass and synth that Usher and Black Eyed Peas and Chris Brown have in their songs.

Like, a thick, deep, round sound is the best I can do to describe it? If anyone has Logic Pro, I am hoping to find something that sounds similar to the "Analog Deep Bass" or "Mono Bass" under the "Synth Bass" category.

I am looking into the Markbass Super Synth because, from the videos, it seems like it would do what I want, plus some.

I am currently playing a four string US Fender Jazz with a Tone Hammer 500 and two SL-112s and go from the direct out into the house. No other effects,

I've found some synth tones thicken up nicely with a chorus pedal. It mimicks the tone of having a couple of slightly detuned oscillators on a synth, such as that "Beautiful Nightmare" track they played all the time on the radio a couple of years ago.
