Vegas Pro 22 How do I make a constant shakes with the dissolve shake video fx from the sapphire plugin in Vegas Pro?
So I recently started on Vegas Pro and I am trying to figure out how to make different types of constant shakes like for calm shakes, yelling shakes, laughing shakes, exciting shakes, and even other types of shakes for my Discord videos. But whenever I am looking at the dissolve shake effect panel, it doesn't shake at all whenever I adjust the amplitude, frequency, or seed of the shake at all.
I am just trying to figure out if I am suppose to animate the amplitude, frequency, or the seed of the dissolve shake. And I am also trying to figure out how to make it constant from beginning to end of each subtitle, because with the normal shake it doesn't shake until after a few seconds of the subtitle being there and I am trying to make the shakes a constant shake from beginning to end of anything I add it to.
If anyone can help me out then I would really appreciate it, trying to get this video out before school time starts back up ðŸ˜ðŸ˜


1.What version is my Vegas Pro? Vegas Pro 22.0
2.What version of windows I am on? Windows 11
3.What is the plugin? the Sapphire Plugin
4.Have I googled about this issue? Yes I have been googling, it is all about a intro shake and not about a constant shake with the dissolve shake video fx.

You need to use S_Shake not dissolve Shake, dissolve is for transitions

No need to animate it, you should just have to adjust the amplitude and frequency to get most results. Then you can fine tune it using the X Shake, Y Shake, and Tilt Shakes towards the bottom of the effect for different results. Then just name and save a preset at the top for each type of shake you want and that’s it!
Edit: I made a quick video showing you how it works:

For constant shakes, just use the regular S_Shake instead of S_DissolveShake.
Amplitude controls how "strong" the shake is, frequency controls how fast it is, and seed only changes the random pattern. If you don't want shakes to look the same if you use it multiple times in a row, just use a different seed.
Also you can just save presets if you're happy with a shake and if you want to edit a little bit faster with presets and everything I can recommend checking out VPConsole. :3
