Sweeps used in this cover

Sweep plucking is a useful technique, but it doesn't have a huge amount of use in a regular bass repertoire. That said, if you want to learn, you should start with major, minor, augmented, and diminished voicings. Then, once confident, add sevenths to them. That should get you everything you need in the odd circumstance where a sweep is called for.
