Hello Everyone,
Spring is here in the Northern Hemisphere and the Roon team has been hard at work cleaning up the place to make way for some exciting new features due to release in the coming weeks and months. While we always love to deliver new features that make the Roon experience even better we realize that it’s just as important to keep Roon running smoothly. To that end, today’s release represents some much-needed maintenance and refinement.
Notable issues which have had a wide impact include external storage devices disappearing from some cores as well as Roon remotes crashing when attempting to connect to a new Nucleus or ROCK core. For a complete list of fixes and enhancements please see the changelog below.
Thank you for your continued support,
The Team at Roon Labs
