Replacing the Sample Packs with some other stuff?
🕑 Added 2021-12-08 11:09:22 +0000 UTCHey everyone, I hope you're all enjoying the holiday season, wherever you are<3 Today I need your inputs, I'm considering removing the Sample Pack benefit from the Rainforest tier and I was wondering if that would be okay with you? Is there anything you would like to see instead?
To be completely transparent, I'm currently working on the 10th Sample Pack and it has become a bit exhausting for me to artificially come up with new sounds all the time. These days I'm creating a lot of music for other projects and I feel like I don't have enough creative juice to make quality sample packs on top of that.
I also noticed there isn't much engagement on the Sample Pack posts so I thought maybe they're not that useful to you guys either? In which case maybe we could find something new that would be more interesting to you and less draining for me. ✨
I have a few ideas that I will list below, but please feel free to add your own in the comments too :
- Q&A videos ala Hainbach where I would just sit down and answer questions submitted by people in the Rainforest tier (but I guess the video could be available for all patrons? To be determined!).
- In-depth Logic session breakdowns of jams or other projects I'm working on, in which I would probably discuss arrangement, mixing and home-mastering in more details.
Just to be clear, that new benefit would probably happens every 2 months like the Sample Packs did. Also the previously released Sample Packs will obviously remain available forever! Anyway, I think that's it for now. If you have any other ideas on how to improve the Patreon next year I would love to hear those. Your supports helps tremendously and I want the Patreon experience to be as rewarding as possible for you guys<3 Have a lovely day!

I agree. I don’t need sample packs that much. More interested in your signal chain and how you route things for this great sound. At the entry tier, I’m happy to just support and get a few previews now and then. And being able to send in Q&A questions would be awesome. Plus I use Logic as well.

Duly noted!
