In this episode, Dave talks about the timeline of production music. It takes a long time for a cue to go from an idea to a royalty payment. The shortest possible scenario is 7-9 months, but the average is 1-1.5 years, and the worst case scenario is over 2 years. Dave also discusses the different steps in the process, such as producing the cue, pitching it to a library, getting it placed in a show, and getting that sweet royalty check.
