Has anyone used the new Innuos 2.0 Sense music app? Compared it to Roon?

I compared the two as I am a lifetime Roon customer.  I prefer the sound of the new Innuos Sense music app.  More natural and less electronic or digital sounding.  Not day and night, but better. My big issue is Innuos Sense does not seem to keep playing music, like Roon, when the album is complete.  Roon had a Radio switch that played artists similar to the artist as a continuous stream and I loved it.  Heard many new artists I loved this way.  
Anyone know if Innuos Sense has a similar setting? I can’t seem to find it.

I too believe Sense to be better than Roon.   The only feature which tempts me back to Roon is DSP.  We all need a tone control now and then.

I did ask Innuos if they plan to add such a feature, and the reply from Head of Sales was thus:

One of the reasons Sense sounds so good is because it is so light on hardware processing. Put simply, the more processing running in the background, the more noise is generated with negative impact on sound quality. This is why, for the moment, we have no plans to add DSP in Sense. That said, our development team is constantly looking for ways to improve our products, so we may eventually find a way to implement DSP with neglidgeable impact in sound quality.
