You can certainly use P606 for basslines. Make sure you run the VST wrapper (on the CD) first, so that you can use Effects to crunch up your sound (the built-in bass sounds need beefing up with compressors and overdrive, imo).

You can use multisamples too, and they sound awesome, there is a multisamples thread here somewhere. It looks complicated at first, but once you master it you can have multisamples on in a couple of minutes!

Start by emulating your favourite artists. To do this, record parts of their tracks, and analyse the resulting waveform to see where the kicks, snares, bass notes etc are actually occuring on the timeline. Then make your own version of the same thing.

This is a learning tool; obviously once you start to get some confidence you will be able to make your own, original, patterns.
