I have no bass guitar soo..

What other alternatives do i have to make a bass line on my computer?

I mean are there any vsts or alike that i can write the music into and it'll make a wav/mp3/midi or whatever. Just im recording a bunch of ideas for a band, got the drums, guitar and vocals sorted. Just no bass.

I tried steinbergs 'voice designer' and just recorded the bass line on my guitar and turned it all down an octave. But that just makes it very 'sludgy'.

Thanx for any help you give :)

I personally use Fruityloops with the Natural Decaying Bass soundfont for my bass lines, it does an okay job for most bass lines.

Whats better- using fuity loops or a guitar with a switch to turn it into a bass?

no, you don't get the right punch. specially when you start doing slap bass
