Here is a clip from soundcloud that we're working on. The timing is a little off still but good enough to see what I'm looking for. I'm thinking Phaser but can't seem to find one I like. The track is my Takamine thru the C1 comp, doubler2, and Enigma stereo...
 
I can't seem to adjust these for bass so anyone got any ideas how I can get a nervous bass in Sonar?

I'm not sure what you're asking for here. Are you wanting to augment the existing passage to have more bass, or do you want a matching bass line with the same kind of quality as the recording?

A somewhat matching bass tone.  I'm channeling Ballad of Dwight FRY for the general nervousness/paranoia feel. It's about a girl named Nancy......

I've had the unfortunately affliction of a nervous bass since I was a young lad... minus the "b".

People get nervous when I pull out my bass.

I didn't start this thread for jokes. I need a phaser/flanger or whatever..........

Maybe instead of a phasor or flanger on the bass a simple tremolo would make it quiver without the coloring of the phaser/flanger. 
A phaser or flanger might make the bass stick out like a sore thumb.
 
I think this thread belongs in the Techniques forum.

Yeah I thought I might have put it in the wrong forum.. I'll give the Tremolo a try. At least I understand the adjustments.
 
I like the use of "quiver"!

Might be worth trying D16, their Electric Mistress emulator is pretty good.
