This is great for kicks to give them more oomph (or with an inverted envelope to dip down into the sub region on each hit but not boost that region all the time).

For sub bass, it’s not about a really boosted fundamental. And, unless you’re using keyboard tracking, you would just be boosting a single frequency and not each note that you’re playing.

Great sub bass is about harmonic content added through drive and not waveshape i.e. overdriven sine vs. harmonically rich saw.
