Sleep Timer Fade-Out Option (Like Spotify)

Feature Request:

I’d love to see an enhancement to Roon’s Sleep Timer — specifically, the addition of a smooth fade-out when the timer ends, similar to what Spotify offers.

Right now, playback stops abruptly at the end of the timer, which can be jarring—especially when using Roon to fall asleep. A configurable fade-out (e.g. last 10–30 seconds) would be a much more pleasant and seamless experience.

This would be a small but meaningful improvement to Roon’s already excellent user experience.

Use Case:

  • Listeners who use Roon at bedtime
  • Creating a more ambient, polished playback environment

Thanks for considering it!

Hi @Ted_Mosby,

I don’t use the Sleep Timer so can’t offer personal experience, however, according to Roon … it should do that now, see …

From that help page …

I note Roon say “Whenever possible” … I wonder if this is related to source (local or streamed) or source format (DSD?).
