![]() This makes it way too easy to make a mistake and inadvertently send a full range signal through your tweeters. My biggest dislike in Roon DSP is that to turn a particular filter off you only have to click in the vicinity of the appropriate button. ![]() I couldn't find a way to successfully measure the transfer function of my DSP settings in Roon - there seemed to be a lot of processing going on causing too much latency. The graphs are good, but more detail would make them even more useful. Qobuz' desktop app has improved dramatically over the last year - it used to be very buggy and was one of the reasons I wanted to evaluate its integration with Roon. Integration with Qobuz was excellent, but I much prefer the playing now layout of the Qobuz desktop app to Roon's layout. I generally liked Roon Radio - in fact its ability to choose music that I liked based on the seed music was also its downfall - it regularly choose music (from Qobuz) that I already had. Images of musicians/bands were often poor or non-existent. I use a large screen TV and the amount of blank space looked strange. I didn't find the playing now screen particularly impressive with some text way too small and yet large amounts of wasted screen space. After reading a lot of positive reviews of Roon maybe my expectations were too high, but I didn't subscribe. JRiver doesn't have graphing capability which is a weakness and there seems to be no intention to develop it, either, which is a shame.Īs a long time Qobuz subscriber I was recently offered a 90 day trial of Roon. I can use REW and route it through JRiver to measure the transfer function of my DSP settings. As an experiment I've also tried full room correction (FIR filters for the 8 channels and upsampling) without any glitches. The CPU load is higher, but everything works fine. I've built the required X-overs and DSP for my speakers in Acourate and used JRiver's convolver with no problem either. VST plugins are easy to install and work well. Output from my turntable can be routed through JRiver with no problem. Its WDM driver is a real strength enabling the routing of any external content through the DSP - in my case primarily Qobuz. It's rock solid and stable and I make extensive use of DSP (8 channels with X-overs and EQ). I've been a JRiver user for more than 10 years.
