Text of the page (random words):
audio data the codec also carries metadata for authentication and playback filter control the authentication metadata instructs the decoder that the file contains mqa format and identifies basic or studio certification which may be indicated on the playback device the playback filter control metadata instructs the playback device on which filter to use for reconstruction of the analogue waveform unlike popular lossy compression formats like mp3 aac and wma that use perceptual encoding based on psychoacoustic models the lossy encoding method of mqa is similar to aptx and wavpack hybrid lossy which uses time domain adpcm and bitrate reduction although mqa compression is lossy it is claimed to be audibly transparent 32 33 audio signal processing description edit mqa processes the digital audio recording to alter the impulse response of the end to end filter chain from recording and production to playback this is described as changing the time domain response similar to that of sound passing through less than 20 meters of air 1 the mqa filter response process starts with the adc either by a known make and model or by analyzing artifacts in the recording and ends with control of the filter in the playback dac 34 it is common for consumer dacs to include user selectable filters including apodization filters intended to improve time domain transient response without knowledge of the production filters whereas mqa controls the dac filter to complete the mqa designed end to end time domain filter response 32 authentication description edit the mqa processed file contains an authentication function that indicates if the file is in the mqa format or not there are two defined categories of mqa authentication mqa which may be indicated with a green light meaning that the file has not been altered since creation and mqa studio which may be indicated with a blue light which additionally means that someone representing the studio or artist validated that the file is an approved version one claimed intent of the mqa authentication feature is to assure that the recording is genuine and unadulterated from the mqa processed studio master recording 35 though the veracity of this authentication has been called into question 36 reception edit this section contains a pro and con list please help rewrite it into consolidated sections based on topics february 2024 positive edit robert harley editor of the absolute sound stated in march 2016 that mqa will forever change the way we and future generations consider digital audio 37 john atkinson editor of stereophile stated the following about the launch of mqa in december 2014 in almost 40 years of attending audio press events only rarely have i come away feeling that i was present at the birth of a new world 38 in the 2l records 2015 announcement of an mqa remastered release of piano recordings company owner morten lindberg stated i have spent many hours with bob listening to original recordings and being constantly amazed by the incredible sense of space and clarity brought by mqa in comparison to the drawbacks and weaknesses of the early digital technology originally used for the recordings 39 in the atlantic records announcement that it would sell records using the mqa format ceo craig kallman stated in may 2016 that mqa makes high resolution music easy to stream or download to any device music fans will love it when they hear it and wmg is thrilled to be partnering with mqa to take the next step in bringing hi res music to consumers around the globe 40 similarly when universal music group announced in february 2017 that they would be selling songs in mqa format company executive michael nash stated with mqa we are working with a partner whose technology is among the best solutions for streaming high res audio and one that doesn t ask music fans to compromise on sound quality for convenience 41 negative edit an article titled digital done wrong on the international audio video review website concluded that mqa is founded on a fundamentally unsound understanding of correct digital audio processing and found that playback of a sample mqa encoding demonstrated gross distortion and reconstruction failure it did however comment that some listeners may find the technical defects of mqa encoding subjectively pleasing 42 singer and musician neil young has expressed dislike for the mqa format saying the masters are degraded and manipulated when encoded to mqa and has consequently removed his music from tidal after finding out that his catalogue on the service was encoded in mqa without his permission criticizing warner music group which owns reprise records that young has released most of his catalogue through for encoding music whose masters are no better than cd quality in mqa he also characterizes the format as a way to collect royalties 43 some critical comments have been made in online forums such as the audiophile style forum 44 and in audio magazine website comments and a few writers have expressed concern in some areas over 80 detailed questions some of which voiced these concerns were submitted to the editors of the audiophile style forum and subsequently addressed in detail by the creator of mqa bob stuart in an extended question and answer article 45 the editors of audiophile style forum subsequently updated the article with a disclaimer that most of bob stuart s answers have been debunked and the mqa technology is now seen as lacking any benefit for anyone other than record labels and mqa ltd 45 audio product manufacturer schiit audio announced that it will not be supporting mqa due amongst other reasons to the understanding that supporting mqa means handing over the entire recording industry to an external standards organization 46 in a blog post titled mqa is bad for music here s why hi fi manufacturer linn products criticises mqa s licensing requirements asserting that mqa is an attempt to control and extract revenue from every part of the supply chain and not just over content that they hold the rights for 47 after having discussed several disadvantages for both the artist and the consumer linn concludes that a consumer will pay a higher price for the same music and you ll pay more for your hi fi system too and even if you don t buy into mqa everyone will get less innovation creativity and poorer music as a result 47 in an interview for online publication positive feedback engineer andreas koch is critical of mqa due to its lossy algorithms and compression along with its licensing requirements also saying that a format such as this does not solve any problem that the world currently has 48 koch was involved in the creation of the super audio cd the development of the direct stream digital codec and is co founder of audio product manufacturer playback designs while the encoding system remains proprietary work by måns rullgård was able to examine the control stream after the first decoding step through analysis of the bluesound rendering firmware in early 2017 with published code 49 using the reverse engineered code audio blogger archimago published results of the mqa dithering noise shaping and resampling options in the mqa rendering step 50 mqa s upsampling filter impulse responses were published by july 2017 51 a critical review of mqa titled mqa a review of controversies concerns and cautions was published in audiophile style in early 2018 52 mqa declined a request for formal response to the contents of the article the goldensound audio equipment review website examined mqa through the use of author created audio tracks released on tidal 53 through analysis of tracks before and after mqa conversion it was found that encoding a file in mqa alters the sound encapsulated in the file to its detriment 54 goldensound deduced that this method of encoding shows mqa has been providing unfounded information on how their encoding and format work shortly after contacting mqa for clarification about the issues the files in question were deleted from tidal bob stuart wrote on his blog that mqa did not delete his files that accusation is false 55 mqa stated that the files supplied were not dithered but truncated 16 bit files meaning they were of higher bit rate originally leading to the issues in encoding 56 goldensound disputes this saying they have tested the track both dithered and undithered goldensound also reports ineffectiveness of the fingerprinting technique 53 57 36 which was also experienced by neil young and fredericv 58 the findings prompted aix records through its founder mark waldrep himself a mastering engineer to demand the label s catalogue removed from tidal as long as they would mqa process aix masters 59 to counter the points made by goldensound jim austin of stereophile published an article which included criticism of the use of test signals which violated the mqa encoder parameters that are designed for music and stating that the goldensound s tests are a missed opportunity and that the critique is unfair 60 following lenbrook s acquisition in 2023 soundstage solo editor geoffrey morrison would link mqa s decline and distressed restructuring to the lossiness issues uncovered by goldensound 61 playback devices edit hardware decoders are sold by pioneer onkyo astell kern sony and others 62 software
