ARC Connectivity Improvements

When we implemented a range of improvements to Roon and ARC a few weeks ago, we assured you we’d follow up again after reviewing your comments on those changes. As promised, we’re back today with another batch of targeted ARC fixes based on your feedback and our analytics insights.

Hell freezes over: How folder browsing came to Roon

2024 has been an exhilarating ride at Roon, and we’re only four months in!

We’ve announced two new Nucleus models and certified more new partner products than in the first quarter of any other year. We’ve added dynamic features and customer-requested enhancements to Roon and ARC every few weeks. The $499 Nucleus One crushes our long-standing goal of creating the best budget Roon server ever made. We removed Roon’s continuous internet requirement. And today, we’re doing something we said we’d never do – adding folder browsing to Roon.

Roon’s Latest Software Release Enhances Performance, Stability, and Efficiency

We have some exciting details to share about several changes we’ve made to improve your experience while using Roon at home and ARC on the go.

But first, we’d like to thank you again for your candid responses to our user survey. Your input has given us valuable insight regarding new features and needed fixes you’d like to see. We appreciate your help pointing out areas that need attention, and we’re committed to addressing each of them to ensure you have the best experience possible with Roon.

Nucleus One, the best budget Roon server ever made

It’s always exciting to encounter something that challenges belief and expectations simply by existing. Stress testing objects from Too Good to Be True Avenue and having them stand up to scrutiny is gratifying, inspiring even.

Especially when they’re items that typically demand a bit of money to exhibit quality, like finding a well-made but affordable musical instrument. Another example is the trove of incredibly high-value, low-cost Hi-Fi gear that has sprung up over the last few years. Many of those devices are from Roon partners who have perfected the art of making great sound affordable.

Roon adds powerful new two-way sync, improved browsing capabilities, and folder organization to playlist features

There’s no denying the popularity of playlists. Open any streaming service app, and you’ll immediately be presented with proof of their far-reaching appeal. Dig a bit deeper, and you’ll likely discover lists for things you never imagined. It’s not that surprising, really. As music lovers, we can’t help but be drawn in by the captivating power of a well-crafted music set. Playlists make DJs and music directors of us all by delivering a creative outlet that opens new vistas into how we interact with music. That’s what Roon is all about–making your music listening more immersive and engaging.
