My usual approach, regardless of the synth used, is to first make patches, keeping the genre(s) they'll be used for in mind. Then, when it comes to writing a track, I go and pick from amongst these and then almost always do some fairly minor tweaking to get it to sit well in the mix. Occassionally, I'll use a patch I've written previously exactly as it is, or make a new patch specifically for a track, but these latter two are much less common.
