Default Best synth for sub-bass?

I want the floor to fuckin shake. Unfortunately my little korg can't produce any sub, and my only other synth is 8bit so thats out of the question. I'm planning on getting another synth soon anyways, so I was wondering if anyone has an opinion on the best sub-bass producing synth (hardware only, bitches).

Alternatively, if anyone knows of a cheap, effective bass pedal I'm all for that.

Thanks

dual whatever wave you're using with a sinewave and lower the oscillator course tuning by about 12 semitones.

otherwise, pump up the Lowpass on your EQ; lower the Mid and High if you have to. bass is bass, man; by that I mean it's more likely your output than it is your patches.

That was the first thing I tried. EQ and LPF effects are subpar on my korg, and I don't have a mixer (even a shitty eurorack one).

dual whatever wave you're using with a sinewave and lower the oscillator course tuning by about 12 semitones.

Sounds like it might work. I'll try it

Thanks :D I'll let you know how it turns out once I get a new adapter cuz my old one just crapped out yesterday..
