| WARNING: Activating multiple DSP items is not recommended and will cause Roon slow down and audio track to drops | ||||||
| WARNING: Activating a Roon DSP parameter and applying it during playback will cause the track in Play to drops during playback or be halted | ||||||
| X: Potential long pause at track start, supported with DSD64 but not with DSD128 & DSD256 formats | ||||||
| X: Performance issues. Track in Play will potentially stop, be halted or be muted | ||||||
