Product Overview

The PD200 Pro Wireless Microphone is Maono's next-generation desktop wireless mic, compatible with the T1 Plus wireless lavalier microphone for collaborative use. Designed to adapt to diverse environments, it enables seamless switching between outdoor and indoor settings.

Application Scenes

Configuration 1:

Using two PD200 Pro microphones together is ideal for dual-host podcasts or streaming. Two content creators can each use one PD200 Pro, sharing a single receiver. The audio from both microphones feeds directly into your live-streaming platform, eliminating the need for a sound card. This simplifies your setup significantly. You can adjust individual microphone volumes directly on the mic itself. For specific needs, you can even copy settings from one PD200 Pro to the other with a single button press, dramatically streamlining your audio tuning.

Configuration 2:

Pair the PD200 Pro microphones with a T1 Plus Wireless Lavalier microphone. Use the lavalier microphone for recording during outdoor livestreaming or video shoots, then seamlessly switch back to the PD200 Pro upon returning to your studio. The wireless lavalier microphone offers superior convenience outdoors, while the desktop mic delivers high-quality audio in your studio.

Learning Maono Link Software

The Maono Link software provides access to DSP functions for microphone adjustment. You can configure any connected microphone through its interface. The adjustment panel offers controls in three sections: Basic, Scene, and Light. The Basic section contains the most common settings. The Scene section allows you to choose different microphone effects. The Light section controls the mic's ambient RGB lighting. When you need to configure a different microphone, simply select its corresponding tab at the top of the control page. The target microphone will flash its lights to help you identify it.

Product functions

1. Basic

The basic functions include the most commonly used functions by users, such as gain, headphone volume, noise cancellation, and monitoring output. They can all be adjusted in the simplest and quickest way.

Micphone gain

Gain Control allows users to adjust microphone sensitivity across 20 levels (0-20). We provide recommended gain ranges for optimal performance. Typically, the farther you are from the mic, the higher the gain setting needed to maintain volume. When positioned closer to the source, lower gain settings can achieve optimal volume levels with enhanced clarity.

Headphone volume

The headphone output volume can be adjusted on the knob of the microphone body, or it can be adjusted in "Basic" - "Headphone Volume" when connecting to the Maono Link software.

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 monitoring 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

Adjust your monitoring mix per scene by checking/unchecking sources:

Using a Wireless Desktop Microphone Kit:

Mic1: Audio from the currently active microphone.

Computer: Output from the computer connected to your receiver (e.g., media playback/notifications).

Mic2: Audio from a secondary paired microphone

Using a Wireless Lavalier Microphone Kit:

Self Monitoring: Hear your own microphone input

Computer : Listen to computer output (e.g., livestreams, music). (Disabled during speaker playback,long-press RX button to switch to internal monitoring.)

Remote Monitoring: Listen to the other party's microphone

The selected audio sources above determine what you can hear during microphone monitoring.

*Notice: Checked = Audible in headphone monitoring. Unchecked = Audio isolation.

2. Scene

We offer preset scenes for Original, Podcast, Game, and Sing . Each scene includes optimized audio presets tailored to specific use cases. Select the scene that matches your activity to automatically configure the ideal audio profile.

Sound configurations

For each scene, we provide a graphical PEQ interface along with preset sound effect configurations. Please note that these preset configurations cannot be modified. If the effects do not meet your expectations, simply press the "Duplicate" button to create a complete copy of the current configuration. This new copy can then be tuned on-site. Under each scene, you can create multiple custom sound configurations. These custom configurations can be exported and shared with others. Similarly, you may import sound profiles (via files) compatible with the PD200 Pro microphone. In the future, we will also enable official website downloads, providing users with more scenario-based sound effects. Simply download and import these files for immediate use.

Copy & Create New

Within a scene, select "Copy" or "+" from the menu bar to create a custom sound configuration. When using "+", you will be prompted to name the configuration.

When using "Duplicate", an exact copy of the current configuration will be created instantly. You can rename any configuration via the dropdown list.

Reset

The sound menu bar includes a Reset button. Use this to restore any custom sound configuration to its original parameter settings.

Export & Delete

Under the More menu, you will find options to:

Export: Saves the current sound configuration data to your desired location.

Delete: Removes user-created configurations permanently.

Sharing

Share your tuned sound files with friends who own the same microphone model. Recipients can import these files via the import function to add them directly to their own scene lists.

Import

To import configurations, locate the "Import" entry on the right side of the "My Scene" title bar. Here, you can select and import sound files shared by others. Imported configurations will be added to the corresponding scene's sound profile list. Apply any imported profile to experience the same tuning effects as the creator.

EQ adjustment

Each sound configuration includes a graphical EQ interface. Presets feature:HPF (High-Pass Filter),LPF (Low-Pass Filter) and 5 adjustable bands. Drag any Band to boost or attenuate gain at specific frequencies, tailoring your microphone's sound effects. Each band uses Peaking filter type with pre-set Q values. If you need to adjust it yourself, you can open the Band Properties window to modify filter parameters manually. And additional tuning parameters will be added in subsequent releases.

Reverb

Three preset reverb levels are available for adjustment based on your vocal context. To disable reverb in specific configurations, deselect the checkbox.

⚠️ Note: The reverb functionality is unavailable in Original scene.

4、General

Recorder

The default recording format is 48kHz/24bit, PCM format audio, and audio recorded can be exported to your destination folder.

In the case of combined use, if you select the stereo mode, a stereo effect will be recorded, and you can perform track - by - track editing during post - processing. If you select the mono mode, the sounds from the two microphones will be mixed and then a mono audio will be output.

Mono/Stereo

The left panel of Maono Link software displays dual level meters when both microphones are active. At the bottom of the meters, locate the Mono/Stereo toggle switch. When you select stereo, you can visually see a difference in the level display of the two microphones. When you select mono, the sounds of the two microphones will be mixed, and at this time, the left and right channel levels will be displayed synchronously.

Settings Synchronization

When using dual PD200 Pro microphones in combination, clicking the "Sync" icon instantly transfers all configured parameters to the secondary microphone. You don't need to adjust the effect of another microphone separately in the same usage scene, which greatly simplifies your preparation work.

The synchronized parameters include: base configurations and scene settings.

If you require modifications to the synchronization scope, contact our support team. We welcome your input to enhance the PD200 Pro Wireless ecosystem – your insights directly shape future product refinements.

Microphone Identification

When using dual-microphone kits, distinguishing between microphones can be challenging. The software interface provides dedicated "PD200 Pro - 1" and "PD200 Pro - 2" tabs. Clicking the different tabs, the corresponding wireless microphone will automatically blink to remind you.

5、 Connect and Pairing
