Summary: Record a shaker track in Cubase like any other instrument. Learn record a shaker for MIDI sequencing in the Cubase DAW from an audio engineer in this free Cubase tutorial video.
"Ok now listen to your track and what the next sound we'll lay is your Shaker which is, if you can hear, let me stop my track so you can hear. A Shaker sounds like this and those are your Shakers and we're going to lay the Shaker to begin on measure one. We're going to lay it on the three, the end of three and measure one. And in measure two we're going to lay it on the three E and like those are sixteenth notes like we discussed earlier. So I'm already have them laid here just to let you hear my solo a, The Shakers. Three we have one Shaker, then two of them on the two, four, three E and a, five, two, three and six, three E and ok? Go ahead and feel that for a while and I'll un-solo it so you can hear it in relation to the rest of the track ok? And three and a ok? And after you lay your Shakers you can go ahead and a go into MIDI Key Editor and line everything up and then transfer your, transfer it to your Audio, Data or Export. Your Audio and Data depending on a, your, the instruments you're using and you can go ahead and drop it in and that'll be it for all our drum tracks, our drum sounds. Like I said if you have any other, if you want to include any other instrumentation or other syncopations into your drum sounds be free to do that because at this point I don't really want you necessarily copying what I'm doing. But learning for yourself in how to create for your, for yourself and from the music that's within you."
