BTW: I checked 'Instant Notification' but I didn't get any notification. Is that happening (not happening) to anyone else?

As of about March 2018, or more precisely when new user registration was turned off, notifications stopped working. There is no desire by BandLab to fix that as this forum will be archived (online read only) and replaced.

abacab:
You're right about Amplesound stuff, I do video tutorials for them in return for the software so I have ALL their virtual guitars and they really are the best - my next tut will be about the 'Riffer' feature which may not be included in the Lite version but it's well worth a look. In this case though, I was specifically looking for synth basses.

Ha!  Didn't realize you were looking for a synth bass. 
 
I will keep a lookout for your Ample tut on "Riffer", as I also have the Ample Metal Ray with "Riffer". 
 
A cool synth bass is the freebie from TAL >  https://tal-software.com/products/tal-bassline
 
But if you want a sampled Moog Taurus (all 3 versions), this is as good as it gets!  > https://www.ikmultimedia.com/products/synbully/

And if you "need" that 303 sound, there is this > https://www.ikmultimedia.com/products/synt03/

It's worth the price for long time.

My first reaction to the OP may be a bit off-kilter, but a lot more samples end up being "usable" if tailored correctly. Rather than a search for pre-processed samples (which can get exhaustive and expensive), using MCharacter on the rawest signal possible (monophonic is best) and then feeding that into an FX chain afterwards has made a lot of samples I thought I would never use (ones preloaded with SONAR) "usable." What sucks is that was 50% off just a few weeks ago, so it will take some time to make another round on sale, but is a very useful "tone-carving" tool.

I'm definitely picking this up next time its on sale. Amazing software!!
