SnowSky Melody EQ app for Android
Contour EQ is a free, open-source Android app that reads and writes the parametric EQ stored inside the SnowSky Melody. The EQ is written into one of the dongle's USER slots, so it works in every app, with no system equaliser.
Stable 1.6.6

Contour EQ and FiiO Control
FiiO's own tools for the Melody are the FiiO Control app and FiiO's web app. FiiO's web app has no Melody-specific limit and lets band gain go down to -24 dB. Contour keeps band gain at -12 to +12 dB, the range FiiO Control uses, until a test shows the Melody keeps lower values. Contour runs on the Android phone the dongle is plugged into, keeps your profiles in a library on the phone and needs no internet or account.
Using Contour with the Melody
- Close FiiO Control first. While it runs in the background it holds the Melody, and Contour cannot connect.
- Pick USER1, USER2 or USER3 above HOLD TO SEND. Contour writes the profile to that slot, checks it and makes it the active one. A shorter profile is filled up with flat bands, because the Melody always holds ten.
- After FACTORY RESET, unplug the Melody and plug it back in. Contour waits for that with no time limit; STOP WAITING ends the wait.

Questions about the Melody
Is there an EQ app for the SnowSky Melody on Android?
Yes. Contour EQ reads and writes the Melody's 10-band EQ and preamp in its USER slots from an Android phone. It is free and open source (Apache 2.0). FiiO's own tools for this DAC are the FiiO Control app and FiiO's web app.
Can Contour update the Melody's firmware?
No. Contour does not update firmware. It reads and writes the EQ, the preamp and the settings on the DAC page, and shows the firmware version at the top of the DAC page.
Do I need a driver or root?
No. Android supports USB audio dongles out of the box, and Contour talks to the Melody over USB after you allow it in Android's permission prompt. No root, no extra driver.
