Learning Maono Link Software
The Maono Link software provides DSP controls for microphone adjustment. You can configure your microphone through its interface. The software interface is divided into three sections: Basics, Scenes, and Lights. The Basics section contains the most common settings. The Scenes section allows you to set the microphone effects with one click. The Lights section controls the mic's ambient RGB lighting.
Product Functions
1. Basics
On the basic section, you can quickly adjust the most commonly used functions, such as headphone volume, noise cancellation, and monitor output.
Headphone volume
The DGM20 Wireless supports 3.5mm analog output. The monitoring output level can be adjusted via the "Headphone Volume" function.
Noise cancellation
The noise cancellation function offers three modes: Slight, Moderate, and Aggressive. Adjust the setting based on your ambient noise level for optimal audio immersion.
Monitor Output
By default, headphone monitor outputs a blend of computer audio and microphone input. In different creative scenes, adjust your monitoring settings accordingly. Check/Uncheck devices to control which audio sources route to your headphones. For guidance, select the "?" icon beside "Monitor Output" for tips.
How to Set Up Monitor Output
Adjust your monitoring mix per scene by checking/unchecking sources:
Mic: Audio of microphone.
Computer: Output from the computer connected to your receiver (e.g., media playback/notifications).
*Notice: Checked = Audible in headphone monitoring. Unchecked = Audio isolation.
2. Scenes
The software includes five preset scenes: Original, Game, Stream, Podcast and Sing. Each scene includes optimized audio presets tailored to specific use cases. Select the scene that best matches your activity for an optimized audio experience. Clicking on any scene will automatically apply its preset sound configuration.
Sound configurations
Each sound effect configuration comes with graphical EQ adjustment.
Preset Sound Effects: Preset sound configurations cannot be modified. If the effects do not meet your expectations, click the "Copy" button to create a a fully customizable copy of the current configuration. This new configuration can then be tuned on-site.
Custom Sound Effects: Under each scene, you can create multiple custom sound configurations. You can export your own configurations to share with friends, or import sound effect files tuned for the DGM20 Wireless by others. In the future, the official website will offer more scene sound effects for download, which can be used immediately with one-click import after downloading.
Copy & Create New

Sharing
You can export your finely-tuned sound profiles to share with friends who own the same microphone model. Recipients can use the import function to add the shared sound effect directly into their own scene list for use.
Import
An "Import Configuration" button is located on the right side of the "My Scene" title bar. Here, you can select and import sound files shared by others. Once imported, the sound configuration will be automatically added to the list of the corresponding scene. You can then apply this profile to experience the same tuning effect.
EQ adjustment
Each sound configuration is equipped with a graphical EQ interface, which includes an HPF (High-Pass Filter), LPF (Low-Pass Filter), and five adjustable bands. You can boost or attenuate the gain at specific frequencies by simply dragging any band, allowing you to quickly optimize your microphone's sound.
Each band uses Peaking filter type with pre-set Q values. If you need to adjust it yourself, click on any band to open its properties window and manually adjust the parameters. And additional tuning parameters will be added in subsequent releases.
