My interview and mini-golf battle with Zach and Leo, composers of “Cobra Kai” and “Weird: The Al Yankovich Story:”
   • Out of the Studio - Zach Robinson & L...  

Get ready for the ultimate comparison. VEPro vs Disabled Track Template. I'm testing composer templates using Cubase 12, Kontakt, Sine Player, Abbey Road Orchestra running with and without Vienna Ensemble Pro to determine what's the fastest workflow for big film and media composer templates.

Vienna Ensemble Pro. Should I use it or not? For many years, this has been the big debate for composers. But the question now is, are these new Apple Silicon Macs fast enough to make a disabled track workflow a viable option for film composers? The only way to find out was to build the best possible VEPro template and the best possible Disabled Track Template and to run benchmarks on the two.

About David Kudell:
David Kudell is an LA-based music composer for film & TV. He is well known for being selected by JJ Abrams, Jonathan Nolan, Lisa Joy and Ramin Djawadi out of 11,000 composers as the winner of the “Spitfire scoring competition” to score a scene from the HBO show Westworld in 2020. His groundbreaking score shook up the composer community with its wholly original take on the scene, and instantly made David a household name among fellow composers.

As a composer, David has shown his ability to write music in a broad variety of styles and genres for film & TV. As part of composer Anne-Kathrin Dern's team, he recently contributed music to the Netflix film "The Claus Family 2," the gothic thriller film "Devil,” and romantic thriller “Have. Hold. Take.”

His album "Reel One," a collection of original themes for film and TV, is now available on all streaming platforms.

In addition, he has written music and sample library demos for the premiere sample library companies Orchestral Tools and Native Instruments.

Born and raised in Southern California, David graduated with a Master's Degree in Film & Television Production from San Diego State University in 2000. After graduation, he worked in the post-production sound department on over 25 Hollywood films, including Black Hawk Down, Mission Impossible 3, and Kill Bill. He is also an accomplished video director, having filmed and produced hundreds of commercials at his company Rimrock Creative Media.

His background as a video director has led to his current success as a music composer, as his understanding of the filmmaking process gives him a film director's perspective on the best use of music to tell the story.
