-DISCORD AND PATREON UPDATES!-

Hello, Andrew here!

I'm spearheading some of the changes we're implementing right now for our Discord and Patreon so I'd like to let you know what those changes are and a bit of why.

To start, big ups to everyone who supports us on patreon, twitch, shows, merch, and social media interactions (don't have to send money to support!). We think of the merch/twitch/patreon as a fundraiser to help us keep writing music and touring.

As the project continues to grow and we explore new things as individuals and a group, we often reflect on where we were, where we are, and where we're heading. This reflection has brought up a bit of a pain that's been growing which is, we're absolutely slammed with work and need to adjust the promises we make with patreon. 

In light of that, here's some updates:
Bargain Bins: this tier has always been about supporting without looking for too many returns from us. This tier remains mostly unchanged but new patron- only channels have been opened up to this tier so check it out!
Hallowed: We've removed the "tour media folder" perc as it was hardly used in the last couple years. It was an interesting idea that didn't pan out so it's been canned. We've added the ability for this tier to acces the #music-feedback and #demo-listen channels now!
Flex Technique: This still includes the live mix archive (even though that archive updates very slowly) and the patreon tracks vault. Merch discount has been adjusted from 10% to 5% and it has access to all of the highest tier private channels on discord.
Producers: As a part of our reassessing, we've realized that committing to a streaming schedule is not something we can do at this time. Streams will still happen, but we aim to do them "as we have time" with the exception of Ternion Selects. This means there will likely be less VODs uploaded but they will still be uploaded when a stream happens. Samples will also occasionally be made available through the regular channels.

You will notice that we've consolidated the patron-only discord channels to 1 area now as most tier-specific channels were going unused. Hopefully this helps de-clutter the server and makes everything is easier to find!

Please don't hesitate to reach out with any questions and also a reminder; support comes in many different ways, it doesn't have to be through $! On behalf of Jack, Aric, and myself, we really appreciate y'all helping us do what we do!
