Anyone using Audrivana? Thoughts, comparisons to Roon and MinimServer options?
I have Audirvaba and I like it a lot. Very nice UI and the dCS certification means it recognizes your unit and configures itself correctly. I tend to prefer Roon myself, due to familiarity and the fact I can use my FIR room correction filter. But IMO Audirvana is a nice product.
Hi, just received my Rossini, how do I get it to see Audrivana?
It is the other way round. AudirvÄna needs to āseeā your Rossini and your music (if hosted locally). If youāve set up MinimServer correctly then the device running AudirvÄna just needs to be on the same subnet (i.e. the third segment of the IP address needs to be the same) as the MinimServer device and the Rossini to see them. If this is true then per above AudirvÄna should recognize the Rossini and configure itself automagically.
Audrivana is on the MBP using studio. Do I need to get the Nas version and mount it on the Synology?
PS I am sorry to be a pain, I am struggling through this as I am not good with network stuff it does not come second nature so again sorry if I miss the obvious. I do appreciate your patience. It a minor miracle I have got this up and running this far as to the Synology and mini. THX
Nope, just install AudirvÄna on your MBP and MinimServer somewhere on the same network, it could be on your MBP or on your Synology. Then just check that your MBP, Rossini and the Synology are all on the same subnet (same number in the third segment of the IP address). Then everything should work without any need for further configuration.
Andrew, Phil and everyoneā¦Just a note of thanks to you and all the guys at DCS support for all your help, patience and guidance. After what feels like a long two weeks I have managed to set up my first NAS, download and install MinimServer, move all my music files to the server, point and load those files to Audrivana and as of this very moment I am listening to my Rossini from the file on my Synology NAS thru Mosaic. All because you all have helped me navigate my way there. As I mentioned I am a serious decades old audiophile yes, but on two channel equipment. My foray into network set upās was limited as you can no doubt tell. So I hope you will pass along my sincerest thank you to all the people at DCS that helped me along the way. I am planning on attending Can-Jam NYC in a couple of weeks and plan on stopping by your room and letting Emron and whoever else is attending for you guys know just how outstanding your support is. It is in fact a tipping point issue in my coming back again and again to own DCS components. Thank you again.
PS: one additional question as it relates to Mosaic and Audrivana. As the music files reside on the Synology NAS and Audirana is pointed to those same files can I assume the quality of sound performance is the same whether I stream my files using Mosaic or Audrivana as the choice of interface functionality is something to consider?
Thatās great to hear Anthony! Wishing you many hours of enjoyment.
Spot on.
