In Reply to: RE: Hey JimiAustin: MQA Enabled ADCs posted by 13th Duke of Wymbourne on October 31, 2016 at 18:09:21:
There is one other consideration, which is at least slightly relevant to this discussion. MQA has implemented a procedure where, during recording, they basically collect a fingerprint of the ADC, if you're doing the ADC conversion in anticipation of transcoding to MQA. Not sure if this is just an impulse response test, but that would make sense. Anyway, that information makes it very simple for MQA to decide what needs to happen in terms of time-smear adjustment during the decoding.Speaking of, WMG is doing this with all those analog masters they're in the process of recording. I'll leave it to you folks to decide whether that does or doesn't imply that MQA transcoding is a major motivation for digitizing all those master tapes. In my opinion, it pretty clearly does imply that, but I know some folks are a bit cynical when it comes to all things MQA.
