I'm trying to use a synth bass instrument similar to the one used in this song:
youtube.com/watch?v=rklo-xWxkL4

You can clearly hear the instrument in the video from 0:00 to 0:16.

Are there any existing instruments in the reason default instrument packages that sound similar to that?

Thanks in advance!

Not sure if there are any in the FSB, but it only takes a couple minutes to dope it out once you recognize what waveforms make what sounds: That was 2 sawtooths slightly out of tune (and possibly 1 octave) from each other w/a little chorus, try the attached Thor.

Thank you so much, it sounded perfect! How did you do it? Are there any tutorials on how to create instruments in this manner?

You know, I'm not sure I've seen any on how to mimic an instrument...
I just take a step by step approach--usually in Thor
It's really helpful to know exactly what each knob is going to do to the sound.
a quick version of what I do:
1st: right-click on the face > initialize. That brings it back to bare bones
2nd: I'll have the song w/the instrument I want playing in windows media player, pause it, and try to get as close as possible just by switching through the different waves in the oscillator. -after trying this a bunch of times you start to recognize when you're listening to a song "oh, thats a triangle wave."
3rd: I try to figure out if there's more than one oscillator going, which is another thing you start to hear w/practice. There's a recognizable "zzz" sort of sound you get when 2 osc's are detuned (in that bass I think I set it to +10 on one and -10 on the other) Control-click the tune knobs (resets them) and you'll hear the difference.
Things get tougher if the instrument is using two different wavforms, say a sine and a saw for example, then it's more trial and error.
After all that it's more a matter of really learning how to use those filters.
