РІР‚СљWe were both excited by the prospect that CD, combined with MQA technology, could herald a new era of hi-res audio,РІР‚Сњ says Sawaguchi. Piazzolla by Strings and OboeРІР‚Сњ, recorded by the UNAMAS Piazzolla Septet and mastered by respected producer and mastering engineer Mick Sawaguchi, released by the Ottava label, is now the first MQA recording to be released on compact disc in Japan.Р”Р„fter attending a Japan Audio Society (JAS) seminar on MQA technology presented by MQA founder Bob Stuart in late 2016, Mick Sawaguchi and Synthax JapanРІР‚в„ўs managing director, Seiji Murai, realised that MQA could enable not only 48-24 coding but also 44.1-16 coding.

Since MQA remains essentially a PCM file on a FLAC container, it can also be delivered on a standard Red Book CD, allowing distribution of high resolution audio material on a physical support. Thanks to its reliability and enhanced audio quality, Audirvana has won many supporters among sound engineers, both for studio use as well as at concerts.
