I had a guitar effects unit shipped over from a Japan. I sold it a couple of years later for double what I paid for it.  So if you can get a Melco from the land of the rising sun, go for it!

I am posting this as not sure it will be common knowledge.
You can now stream Tidal/Qobuz with the Melco . I downloaded the 3.5 software and I now use Linn Kazoo app in mode 1.
This supports Tidal for me and so far works a trea.

My apologies if this is old news but Melco did not tell me about this.......I stumbled upon it


RE: MELCO - tategoi - 14-Sep-2017

This is new to me. Thanks. By the way hasn't Melco already developed its own apps in 3.0? Why are you still using Kazoo?

I used to use Lumin app until today when I switched to Kazoo for the Tidal feature. I had no idea Melco had their own app?? What is it called?

Hi Womaz, good app takes a lot of time (2017-> 2018-> ??) Huh


RE: MELCO - Rufus McDufus - 14-Sep-2017

Melco seem to be pretty fastidious with their software development and I'm fairly confident any app they produce could well be quite good, but also perhaps a little basic initially?

Hi, I use for about 1 year with Melco the Linn app "Kazoo" without problems. Runs stable without crashes etc. The Melco app would have more to be able to change to the Melco app. Cool would be, if the Melco can also be controlled (settings, back up, playback of ext. Drive etc .. Will wait and look what comes! Shy
