Once Raspberry PI 4bs are available again, I intend to try them out as bridges. The DACs don’t support MQA, but Roon appears to unfold same as the laptops do, running Tidal.
Furthermore, iTunes, Qobuz and Tidal bit width/sample rates are displayed properly on my Benchmark DAC3s when bridged by the laptops, same as running the applications natively.
#ABLETON LIVE TO SUNLITE SUITE 2 MAC#
Existing obsolete Airport Express streamers are detected and work as endpoints, existing Mac laptops, including a very old one, work fine as Roon bridges. I add that I installed Roon on trial, and am impressed by how well it works. I “disabled” the folder in Roon Settings>Storage as suggested, and indeed the offending Ableton files disappeared. Many thanks and I noticed the Roon “Music” folder was there as default, and since no path was specified, I assumed it was a folder created somewhere by Roon, as opposed to the actual (User)>Music folder created by OS X. Note that Garage Band is also in this Music directory, but it contains nothing as I don’t use it.ĭo you work for Roon? It seems to me this is a bug, specifically that Roon searches folders on its own that it is not pointed to by its user. It seems clear that Roon inspected the top level “Music” directory and pulled the Ableton files as a result. It clearly shows Roon go the file from the Ableton Factory Packs folder. Specifically the Ableton sound files are in Ableton>Factory Packs.Īlso see a screenshot of the Roon “get info” result of an Ableton file imported to Roon. The Ableton folder containing the offending files is also in the same top level OS X folder, “Music” (screen shot below of file folder within Macintosh HD>users.(user)>). To be sure I searched the iTunes Media folder (that Roon is pointed to) for some known Ableton files, with no results found.
I’ve been ripping CDs to iTunes for at least 20 years, use it regularly and no Ableton files have been imported. Screenshots below show Roon is only pointed to the iTunes Media folder.
