Thanks to Guillaume for all the pics.
Fantastic news about RAAT.
Seeing the background of the team didn’t fill me with huge hope I have to say. I guess a lot of people moved to Phantom, are involved with other projects, or have left.
It’s only a small detail on the slides, but I was incredibly disheartened about the “no planned bug fix for legacy expert remote app” at the bottom of one of the pages. They’ve neglected it for years, and IMO it’s one of their greatest assets and should be kept bang up to date. It fits the aesthetic of the Experts perfectly, and we don’t all want Spark - why cat the experts have their own cool remote?. The writings been on the wall for some time (they still havent even updated the screen display to match the new Expert screen design/colours), but it’s crushing news to see it in writing.
I suppose RAAT will hand volume control over to Roon for people that use it, but I still like the silver wheel and ‘directness’ of the Expert app. And if they’re not updating it, where is the replacement?
As for giving them space, I really think this has to be earned at this stage in the game..... so I’ll just try and post as little as I have been lately anyway. And wait in the wings.
Drinking and meeting at Munich would have been really good all of that said, but that’s a way off for me. Hopefully those who went made up for the rest of us.
