If I were you, I would make a 2 stuff part indicating the bass part in
reduction for that section, removing unnecessary portion of the bass
part with Stuff Style.

The way I write drum part when a specific pattern is needed is to write
out the exact pattern in detail for once then slashes with 'simile'
indication until the new pattern or new section hits.  I also write bar
indicator every 4 bars when slashes goes long, i.e., (4), (8), (12), and
(16).  This helps drummer a lot.
