Sonic Studio Brings Integrated MQA Support to Amarra Luxe 4.1

Sonic Studio announced the release of Amarra 4 Luxe v4.1 featuring integrated MQA (Master Quality Authenticated) audio technology. The latest version of the popular Mac-based software music player now supports MQA Core Decoding that unfolds an MQA file to deliver higher than CD-quality sound, and supports MQA TIDAL streaming, delivering the sound of the original master recording with files small enough to stream, while also being backward compatible, so they can be played on any device.

Music technology company, MQA, announced a breadth of new partnerships at the IFA consumer electronics show in Berlin. Developed for convenient delivery and unmatched audio quality, MQA technology will now be supported by LG’s new V30 smartphone, the first globally available MQA-enabled handset. MQA music playback will also be available on the two latest portable devices from Sony’s iconic Walkman brand, the WM-ZX300 and WM-A40 models.

Amarra for TIDAL is the ultimate music playback solution for streaming audio, and will be available from the Sonic Studio web site for US$39.95, while the free Amarra Remote app will be available from the iTunes Music Store. The new player was developed in conjunction with TIDAL’s engineers.
