Removing MQA metadata in songs for non-MQA devices?

This happens automatically. Or, more precisely, the metadata is added back in certain circumstances. The default output of the MQA decoder does not contain the rendering metadata. We call it “MQA Signaling” in the signal path.

This applies to decoded MQA; there is no way to strip out all of the encoded information from un-decoded MQA.
