i was hoping to get a little guidance to make sure I'm correctly setting up my mRendu, SonicTransporter I5 and NAS (containing my music files). Just for a little initial background, I'm running Roon remote on my Macbook air and iphone, have a Synology DS216j NAS storing music files, plan to use the SonicTransporter as a music server, and will connect the mRendu --> DAC-->amp.
After plugging in the SonicTransporter, I was expecting to connect my NAS via USB and it be good to go to serve up my music to Roon. This wasn't quite the case as I can't seem to locate my NAS in the SonicTransporter management web browser page. Could someone give me a step by step of this setup process (or point me to the correct thread on it if its already been done)? Is there something I need to do in Roon to point the SonicTransporter to my NAS? Is a USB connection between the two even necessary? I've looked around the SGC webpage for documentation on the SonicTransporter but wasn't able to locate any.
Also, is there anyone else out there running a setup similar to mine, but also running HQ Player in addition to Roon? If so, what additional hardware would I need to start running HQP?
Thanks in advance for your help!
