    High-pass filter in Roon

    I added a high-pass filter in Roon to see if I could hear a difference in layering and overall clarity on certain songs without the bass content. But adding the high-pass filter results in digital clipping. Can anyone explain why? Scenario: - set the headroom adjustment to -4dB to accommodate...

    Roon tutorials? I find Roon very confusing.

    Hi All, I have Roon running on a Roon nucleus. I use it to collate my Tidal and Qobuz accounts and for streaming radio. I don't have any music hosted locally on my Roon as most of my media is vinyl (lots of stuff never digitized). I know there are a lot of power users on here and hoping for...

    Easy On, Easy Access

    Hi all, I’m looking for a way to make my beast-rig more family-friendly, so others can enjoy HQ audio. Recently, I got a Fosi Vol20 knob and with an Ipad to Roon they are a nice addition - maybe - but that got me thinking: Kids who wear Ipods all day just need to scroll to the next song. What...

    Question about Bit Depth Reduction and Quantization Errors

    Hi everyone, I have a question regarding bit depth reduc-tion, quantization errors, and dithering in a typical audio signal path. As I understand it, dithering should ideally be applied only once-typically during the final export from a DAW, when converting from 64/32-bit floating point to...

    AI liner notes

    I’ve just noticed liner notes (or whatever we’re calling them now) popping up in tidal via roon which sound suspiciously AI-generated. Leaves me cold.

    Boombox with AIrplay and built-in MP3 player

    Hello Audio fans I'm looking for a smallish stereo boombox with a built-in MP3 player (so that my son can choose audio stories and songs without a big screen). However the boombox should also have Airplay (to connect to my Roon HiFi setup). Any suggestions of models?

    Where do we send feedback or feature suggestions/changes for Roon?

    I've searched but can't seem to find a place other than the community forums to send feature suggestions/bug reports/feedback. Is there a direct line to Roon Support or are the forums the only place? What is the best way? Thanks!

    Software for 3-way active XO

    I have a music PC running Windows 11. On it, I have Roon and Dirac.

I would like XO DSP software to sit between Dirac and the USB port. I know I need a...

    Mac Mini vs. Roon Nucleus One as roon server?

    Hi All, I need a dedicated Roon server and considering one of these two. The price is the same essentially. I am on an all Mac ecosystem and thus would be comfortable with the mac mini. Would there be any advantage in the Nucleus One over a mac mini dedicated to being a Roon server?

    Android as Roon Endpoint? - new feature: bit perfect

    This seems worth a bump: https://community.roonlabs.com/t/arc-bit-perfect-in-android-phone-finally/224694 I know we have other threads, but I don't think this should be buried. I think it means I can use my old Android tablets as a Roon endpoint. (I mean, there was a way, but this is easier)
