The second component is a Roon endpoint which can be a streaming device like a Bluesound Node 2i, Sonore microRendu, or even a. A lot of people may not hear the difference between a WAV, AIFF, or FLAC file, but we do. Doing any additional fades on a 16-bit WAV will introduce floating point audio again and either require additional dithering or result in truncated bits. Roon also contains a powerful DSP engine, and support for high-resolution digital codecs up to 768kHz/32-bit PCM and DSD512. In these cases, the files they considered “mastered” are far from a final master. Some clients are unsure if they need or want extra time added between songs, and some even ask for fade-outs. Sometimes files will be hitting or exceeding 0dBFS which can result in some nasty sounds/artifacts and audible distortion down the line with playback on cheap systems and inevitable mp3 or AAC encoding. Some people will send 48k (or higher) WAV files, some files have undetected sounds or noises before or after songs due to inattentive listening or poor analyzation before sending them in. When I’m doing these kinds of jobs, I see all sorts of problematic files as well.
