What kind of bass are you looking for?
The Voyager and mopho are great suggestions if that is the type of bass you are looking for.
Of the suggestions so far, the motif will give you the most choice - short of the ASR because it is a sampler and if you can hear it, then you can sample it. Bass sounds aren't that difficult to sample or even create - again though, all dependent on what you are going for.
The mo Phatt was made to be geared specifically for hip-hop. Because of that, it does have a nice assortment of bass patches IMO.
They are however, taken from the Proteus line, so the proteus modules might give you those same sounds plus a wider variety of other sounds. I like the E-mu modules myself. At one time I had the Proteus 2500 with the MoPhatt rom in it - that was nice, but it was a REALLY big module.

studio electronics SE1x or ATCx or a moog Voyager for synth type basses.
Roland Fantom XR with Drum and bass card in it, or a motif for "real" basses

I use RM1x for basslines, usually.

if all you want is bass then get a novation

Hey,

Yea what kind of bass do you want ?

I can suggest you the novation bass Station for 303 sounding bass, it does subtractive synthesis, plus it has an external input. Also the Super Bass Station is nice, for lower bass, it has an sub Oscillator.

Moog Prodigy is a nice warm sounding synth with 2 oscillators...for that classic Moog sound, also a subtractive synth. It sounds very nice.. and it's affordable

All of the above are Monosynth meaning you can only play 1 note at a time, but you can of course multitrack them....
The Roland SH101 is also comparable to the Bass Stations and 303 and sounds very nice.

Also check out the Juno range... Juno 60, Juno 106 they are nice too, the 60 sounds a bit more agressive and doesn't have MIDI in Out ... but is very punchy ..

Mo Phatt and Planet Phatt sound to me a bit outdated..... (my opinion) And they are ROM based modules ; they use samples which are stored in the ROM... Especially Planet Phatt is aimed at the hip hop market so most sounds in there are the common uses sounds in 80's and 90's hip hop... this could be a good and bad thing, depending on your needs.

These are some of the synths I used and are nice sounding and affordable : 200 - 500 euro second hand ...

Hope that helps... but let us know what you're looking for, maybe link us to some music for examples...
