Bass sounds are pretty simple...

Start with one oscillator set to sawtooth, on 16' (low) pitch setting. Set the filter cutoff sorta-low and the resonance about half way to start. Set both envelopes (filter and volume) to have a quick attack, no decay and high sustain. This should get you started...just tweak from there to change the sound.

Also, Google 'subtractive synthesis' for plenty of tips and tricks.
