Playing my (early) Marillion albums at an “appropriate” volume this Friday afternoon and I’ve noticed a pop / click between the tracks - which shouldn’t be there - all the albums are a continual mix of tracks.
This is very annoying because it completely upsets the mood / music / atmosphere / continuity - and although there’s a lot of clever electrickery in my Meridian DSP speakers there’s the (hopefully irrational) concern of damage.
To be quite honest, with things like this, the (new) lag in Remote response / connection, the ever ongoing Metadata issues and the multitude of other problems that other users are experiencing, I’m getting a bit fed-up & losing my patience.
This stuff should have been tested & sorted out before release : we - the customers - should not be your testers.
Hi,
On reading your post and knowing we have very similar setups
(I have: Win 10, Roon, Meridian 861v6+ID40, DSPs)
I’ve just played the whole of Script and Fugazi …, each track seamlessly ran into the next one, not a pop / glitch at all … Perfect playback.
So I wonder what’s going on with your system … most odd … I suggest an incremental reboot of devices. Also try re-analysing the tracks as Roon uses that data for seamless playback across tracks.
I agree there’s scope to improve the Metadata lookup, but it’s not terrible and it is improving. I can’t comment about remote lag as I’m using an iPadAir2 and it’s super slick. I think you’re being a bit harsh on Roonlabs … but I’ve been working with them testing / giving input on the direction for over a year now … which of course does influence my stance.
PS I was at the Cropredy music festival a couple of weeks ago … Fish was excellent best set of the event.
