Roon Mappings

 

Roon uses User Defined Text information Items for Conductor, Ensemble, Soloist, Work, WorkID, Part, Section, Roon Album Tag and Roon Track Tag. It also uses the following items related to recordings: Recording Date, Recording Start Date, Recording End Date and Recording Location. An Import Date tag can also be used to force the date added metadata when imported by Roon (Note this must be enabled in Roon preferences).

For ease of use the fields can be mapped to Custom fields. This will make them easier to access in actions and will enable them to be displayed on Custom Edit Panels.

Choosing the Roon item in Preferences-Audio-Common Application Presets menu will set various Roon compatibility settings. if you want to ensure that the modified settings are applied to your files, you can run a simple one line action through the Batch Processor and re-save all your files. The Force Save Files sample action is provided which you can use.
