Roon 2.0 Build 1216 and ARC Build 149 is Live!

Hello Everyone,

The primary change in this week’s earlyaccess release is an update of the development framework used by Roon and RoonServer on the Windows platform to Microsoft .NET 6. This change should have no impact on the behavior or performance of Roon on Windows so if you notice anything out of the ordinary please let us know ASAP.

There are a number of additional fixes in this release as noted in the changelog below which address some isolated issues which popped up in last week’s production release.

Thank you for your continued support,
The Team at Roon Labs
