Tidal Masters MQA - Why the Frequency Spectrum Gap?

Описание: I'm learning about the new MQA audio format and am playing around with it in the Tidal Masters service. I'm looking for an explanation of why there's a big frequency spectrum gap in a lot of tracks.

► SETUP

• Tidal Masters MQA Service
• Audio inferface set to 96kHz 24-bit
• MQA passthrough disabled (software decoding in Tidal)
• Recording in Adobe Audition to 96kHz 24-bit track

► Download Test File: http://bit.ly/2ljRFri (114MB)

It doesn't make any difference to my life :-) but it's just something I noticed and became curious about (that's what I'm into). Is this part of the mastering process by certain record companies? Is this a limitation of the software decoding? I just don't know.

I'm sure there are many people online who know much more about this that I do and might be able to help me with this one. I'm sure it's a simple explanation or an error in my usage or understanding.

Do you use Tidal? Do you like the idea of Hi-Res / HD / MQA audio being offered on Tidal? Is there really any difference??! I'm interested to hear your thoughts in the comments.
