It’s a fairly basic sound to create. You are need to blend a Saw and a Triangle wave together with one more oscillator contributing some noise. To make this EDM slap bass in Sylenth sound slappy, you have to do two things:

1.) In the 2nd modulation envelope apply some Pitch A/B modulation to add the snap to the sound.

2.) Make sure you boost the phase of the Triangle waveform until you hear a more slap styled tone.
