OK, how can I make my bass note last longer & sound like Young Chop, Metro, etc?!!

Hello everyone I am new here. I have FL Studio edition for my iMac and I have been having this issue which has been confusing me for quite sometime now. I do not have a lot of sound packs; just a young chop sound pack and a 808 mafia sound pack that I downloaded with a quick google search lol. It comes with many types of bass. What my real question is how do these producers make their note last longer? (Note that I play guitar as well) It seems as if they can make their notes for bass just last longer as they want to. For example, when you have your 808 set up, and you press any note, you hear it and it gradually fades away. Note that your finger is still pressed down on that note. In other words, how can I make the note last long as the same duration as my finger is placed down on the note? I just want more control with my 808's.

Here are some example's,

Chief Keef "Young Black Bruce Lee" Prod. by Young Chop

Lil Durk "U Mad ft. Lil Mouse" Prod. by Chase Davis

Lil Wayne ft. Drake "Used to"

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eaKeE5qkat0 -----> Specifically at 2:43 and onward.





Lastly, how do you guys make this effect where the prod. makes go left to right? Kinda like the bass is jumping around the speakers in your car or headsets. Here are examples,

Lil Durk- "Instagram" Prod. by Izzy Tha Producer

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=crqQ_rCP-PE ----> Specifically from 0:23 to 0:39

Sd "I do"

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=I9dQ4Dt1IFI -----> Specifically from 1:16 to 1:20 Sounds like they are using some type of phaser effect or something.

So how can I achieve these sounds? And can you guys link me to some great 808's I can get for free? Synths would be nice too. I am trying to get a "house" genre type sound with a influences of this as well. Thanks in advance and have a great weekend/spring break!
 
The bass can be extended in Edison. Load the bass sample into Edison then lengthen the sustain after the attack.

As for the left & right, thats just panning. You can probably find a plugin for it for FL studio. But I'd say learn to use automations. There are tons of youtube videos on both of these subjects.

Really just learn how to use the tools FL Studio gives you. I used edison to modify most of the sounds from sound packs I downloaded to create my own sound.

Thx bro. I had a hunch it had something to do with Edison! Lmao. But does Edison come with fl studio 11 producer edition? Cause I can not find it. I highly appreciate bro. Was not expecting such a fast response.

sinewave at 20-200hz with adsr settings relatively low, probably some distortion as well
square waves would prolly be alright too, maybe even colored noise pitched down.
Kong is pretty good for fast good drum sounds too, although i wonder if thor can do physical modeling since it seem like kong comes from thor in some way.
