4. Operation

4.1 Wear Detection

The MOCA headphones feature photo-sensor wear detection. This system automatically turns on noise canceling when the earphones are inserted into your ears and turns it off when they are removed. It also pauses music playback when an earphone is removed, providing a seamless user experience.

4.2 Active Noise Cancellation (ANC)

The Hybrid Wide-Band ANC technology, combined with a physical acoustic duct structure, effectively reduces environmental noise, including wind noise. This allows for a clearer audio experience in various environments.

4.3 Transparent Transmission Mode

Users can switch to transparent transmission mode by long-pressing the touch control. This mode allows ambient sounds to pass through, enhancing situational awareness. The physical anti-wind noise design helps minimize wind interference during outdoor use.

4.4 Touch Controls

The MOCA headphones feature customizable touch controls. Through the MOONDROP Link 2.0 app, users can set their preferences for functions such as switching between noise canceling, transparent transmission, or off modes, and other controls.

4.5 Low-Latency Game Mode

The MOCA offers a dedicated game mode with a low signal transmission delay of 55ms. To activate game mode, tap the touch panel four times. This provides a more fluid audio experience for gaming. Tap four times again to switch back to music mode.

5. Maintenance

To ensure the longevity and optimal performance of your Moondrop MOCA headphones, follow these maintenance guidelines:

  • Cleaning: Regularly clean the earphones and charging case with a soft, dry cloth. Avoid using abrasive materials or harsh chemicals.
  • Water Resistance: The Moondrop MOCA headphones are not water resistant. Avoid exposure to water, sweat, or high humidity to prevent damage.
  • Storage: When not in use, store the headphones in their charging case to protect them from dust and physical damage.

6. Troubleshooting

If you encounter issues with your Moondrop MOCA headphones, please refer to the following common solutions:

  • Connection Issues: If the headphones fail to connect or maintain a stable connection, ensure they are fully charged and within the 10-meter Bluetooth range. Try resetting the headphones by placing them in the case, closing the lid for a few seconds, then opening it and long-pressing the pairing button to re-enter pairing mode.
  • One Earbud Not Working/Charging: Check that both earbuds are properly seated in the charging case and that the charging contacts are clean. Ensure the charging case itself has sufficient battery.
  • Audio Quality Issues (e.g., crackling, low volume): Verify that the firmware is up to date using the MOONDROP Link 2.0 app. Some users have reported improvements after updating to the latest stable firmware version.
  • Factory Reset: If issues persist, a factory reset may resolve them. This typically involves a specific sequence of button presses on the charging case (often involving the pairing button) while the earbuds are inside. Refer to the MOONDROP Link 2.0 app or manufacturer's support for precise instructions on performing a factory reset.
