12 | Antipodes Audio Music Server
The Roon installation process is intuitive, but we
have included some guidance here to assist you.
Your Antipodes needs to be connected to your
network and powered on, and the Roon installation
process will display devices that are running Roon on
your network.
Click 'Connect' for your Antipodes server.
You will then see a login screen. You can enter your
Roon license credentials here, or sign up for a free
trial.
You will be asked for the location of your music
files. You do not need to complete this step for files
located on your Antipodes as they will be added to
the Roon library automatically.
But you can use this screen to add files on a 'network
share', such as a NAS, at this screen. This option
can be set now or later via 'Settings' and you can
click on 'Next' to skip this step.
You will be asked to add other services such as
TIDAL streaming. You can add this later, but if you
have a TIDAL account, enter your credentials at this
screen. TIDAL streaming is integrated seamlessly
with Roon for an excellent total experience, and is
highly recommended.
When you have successfully logged into Roon you
will be presented with a Roon application screen.
The next step is to enable the Antipodes as a Roon
renderer.
Click on 'Manage Audio Devices' at the bottom of
the screen. In the pop-up screen, scroll down to the
Roon Ready section, and locate the Antipodes. Click
on the 'Enable' button and type in a name for the
player.
Depending on your setup you may need to select the
'Audio Zone' you wish to control.
Roon will automatically import music files on the
Antipodes into the Roon library. If the Antipodes is
new then it will only include the Demo Track.
You should now go to Section 6 of this guide to
learn how to get music files onto your Antipodes and
imported into the library of your Server applications.
