1) im looking for vsts to make basslines like cosmo/higko/ect (experimental)
what would u recommend?
ive tried some vsts from mother of all....thread (vangaurd,vstation,albino,vb1)
and couldent find nice stuff in the presets.
2) can u gimme a link or just tell me what does the knobs/ect on vsts do (envelope : d,s,r,pwm,detune...ect , filter : cutoff, filter types, reso,..ect , LFO : cutoff,detune, pwm, speed) and a link that compares diffrent waves (saw,square,sine,synched saw,peak...ect)
i wanna know how to tweak my own presets
but idk what the knobs do and how diffrent waves differ in sound.
ofc i can experiment, but itll be faster to read about it somewhere. so..
any links/ help is appreciated 
tnx

heheh quick guide synthesis
sound journey from begin to end , the way is changed from synth to synth sometimes...
Generate sound - Oscilator
Mix with second source - 2nd Oscilator
here we have the wavform to begin with
now most likely to find Detune and Pwm to shape the sound even more , detune slightly change the note (full scale is 1 semi tone)
Fileter - Cutoff is the cut point , if its low pass filter type it will cut the high frequency
resonance - will make the same frequency u cut in to boost or 'ring' , this makes up for the lost freqs u cut.. also have cool effect while sweeping
Lfo - this will work to effect other controlers , in specific wave shapes , u can have sine lfo on the cutoff it meens that the cutoff will act like you are playing with it up and down , can be used to "awake to life" some dead parameters
u will have amplitude and speed for this , to shape the "wave" style u want for control
have to go , hope it helped

Don't judge the synths by the presets - I have never found a good bass preset for trance.
Start with raw Oscillators in the right octave. See how they interact with a LPF w/some resonance. |

www.google.com
and read the manuals of your synths.
o.k. i could be a little more friendly...

right, don't give a shit on presets. learn what adsr does to volume and filter. turn all to zero, start with a saw (maybe square) between D1 and B1. put lp-filter cutoff between 40 and 800 hz, filter env amount from 30 to 60, turn up both decays slowly...
then take some month of reading and experimenting 
cheers
