Hello Everyone,
Happy Holidays from the Roon team!
With 2023 coming to a close and a new chapter of Roon starting with HARMAN, we are looking forward to all the excitement that awaits us.
We were tempted to include a few surprises for this release, but ultimately decided that the final Roon release of 2023 should focus on performance and stability so that Roon can perform even better for everyone’s upcoming holiday events. We’re saving the exciting stuff for 2024 
.
In our last release, we split Roon Server (formerly Roon Core) from the Roon UI. While this change brought performance improvements to most of our customers, there were a few unforeseen issues that needed to be addressed before the end of the year. Please see the changelog below for complete details.
We hope the remainder of 2023 treats you well as you celebrate with friends and family. From the Roon team to you, Happy Holidays, and Happy New Year!
Thank you for reading and for your continued support,
The Team at Roon Labs
