As a high end brand I can't believe they leave their customers in the cold. I've already contacted them but they told "they are working on that...".
About Roon, I would only consider Roon when needed on a server/streamer/... not as a player on portable/desktop. Once tried a demo (on macbook), I couldn't hear a difference soundwise and for me there were too many bells & whistles. I'm a fan of Audirvana, clean and a fair price of €99,22.
It is good to hear that it works for you. Now you can continue upgrading your system step by step and make it work on Catalina with Direct Mode Enabled.
