Sonicorbiter - The Operating System

[Kevin Nguyen]

With the global Covid-19 pandemic, borders has been shutdown and airline grounded their fleet, should you consider a new software distribution method Such as downloading?

i am keen to get v2.8 but I know might not get them for a while from Australia

Hi

 

Have you received your SD card yet? How long did it take from date shipped to date delivered?

 

I'm in Australia too.

Not yet, bought from 3/26/2020, take forever and frustrated with current ups shipment or any postage service in general,

 

funny in the digital age, heh, but Sonore people still thinks difference!!! A $20 cheapo Chinese brand smart light can do firmware update via wifi. I don’t understand technical challenge in this 2020

Maybe you don't fully understand the difference between a smart light's and the rendu series' firmware. Very simply put, the functionality and the size of the software components is quite different for the two. Once you have 2.8 installed OTA updates will happen as they did before.

Well I am quite disagree with that, size of images is not a huge matter in this current Internet speed or storage. I don’t need to compare Sonicorbiter OS to giants like IOS or Android but just a direct competitor such as SOTM https://www.docs.sotm-audio.com/doku.php?id=en:eunhasu:burn_sdcard_image

if we think Sonicorbiter is more “advanced” than  Euhansu, it is clearly a lost point in this part.

 

just hesitation to enable a supporting model here from my understanding.  I believe many of us here are kind of early technology adopters who are willing to try new things such as optical network in highend audio. So give customer faster and more global-friendly software upgrade options and trust on people skills are also customer obsessions.

 

list me any common/highly appreciated software here such as Hqplayer, Roon, Tidal that require users to buy CD/MicroSD to get new versions, please

[Kevin Nguyen]

also, 2.7 Sonicorbiter OS is not perfect, there are bugs and playback issues.

manufacturers  should enable customer bug fix/improvement for free rather paying for $29 every new version. Someone said so cheap but still money

 

I don’t see any hifi brands charge money for fimrware update/bug fix/improvements, etc. in their products.

[Kevin Nguyen]

those are valid and constructive feedbacks from customers. There is nothing to push back or be arrogant. 

we did not come here to complain about sound quality, ideas or

cutting-edge innovations in computer audio. if this is something Sonore can do to enable those options such as downloading image, it is an easy win in constant customer support.
 

also I invested some thousand

dollars of hard-earn budget in Sonore streaming platform and become an eligible customer to provide feedback, not BS things without hands-on experience. Please do not tell that if you do not like, find something else which are is a very irresponsibility attitude to me.

Oh shit.

 

To Australia also?

 

KN above had his arrive in Sydney though.

 

The journey from US to destination country is the part that is affected most it seems.

 

Finally got my microSD today, took exactly one month to reach to the pointy end
