Need help making bass sound

Just got a Little Phatty Stage 2, and I love it so far. I upgraded it to 3.1

I’m having difficulty get a certain bass sound. I want to get something that resembles the tone of a real bass, but am having trouble getting something that has good definition and can cut through. I’m new to synths, so I am still learning. I’m looking for something like this:

That’s also a synth bass on the recording, not sure which one, though.

Anyways, I’ve come somewhat close with OSC 1 Traingle and the level all the way up, OSC 2 Rectangular and the level all the way up. The filter cutoff at a quarter of the way, same with Resonance, and the EGR AMNT halfway. It’s okay, but it’s too soft, and not much definition when playing notes fast.

Again, I’m new to this, so any help or a point in the right direction would be great.

Thank you

start out by turning OSC 2 all the way down and sustain and release for both envelopes all the way off
ERG amt at 3 oclock, cutoff at 10-11 o’clock, no res
start out with OSC 1 on a square wave, amp attack at zero, decay at 1 o’clock

Now play around with the filter attack/decay, amp decay, OSC 1 waveform, add in some OSC 2

I’m getting some good reults starting with those settings.

Thanks for your help.
