MQATagRestorer
MQATagRestorer is a utility for the MQA audio codec ecosystem. MQA (Master Quality Authenticated) is a lossless audio codec format developed to deliver high-resolution music at lower file sizes, used by some streaming services and Hi-Fi playback systems. This tool restores or manages MQA metadata tags in audio files, likely helping users maintain proper codec markers or metadata integrity when working with MQA-encoded music files.
AI Recommendation
1 suggestionWe could not find any recent information about MQATagRestorer or confirm whether a native Apple Silicon build exists. The bundle ID and name suggest this is a specialized tool for MQA codec management, likely maintained by a small team or individual developer. Given that the app continues to run under Rosetta 2 today, you can use it normally for now, but Apple is removing Rosetta 2 support in macOS 28 (September 2028), after which an Intel-only build will stop launching entirely. Contact the developer directly to ask whether a native Apple Silicon build is planned, or check their website or repository for updates. If the developer confirms they have no plans for a native build, you may want to explore whether your MQA playback workflow can be handled through other tools or services that have confirmed Apple Silicon support before the 2028 deadline.
