Is the microphone removable?

Troubleshooting
Microphone is not picking up audio
Ensure the microphone is in the active position and not flipped to mute. Check your system sound settings to ensure the MAESTRO 500 is selected as the default input device.
Audio sounds distorted or flat
Open the Nahimic software to check if an audio profile is applied. Resetting the profile to default often resolves issues caused by conflicting equalizer settings.
Headset battery drains faster than expected
ANC consumes additional power. Try disabling ANC when you are in a quiet environment to extend the battery life.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To set up the MSI MAESTRO 500, ensure the device is fully charged using the provided USB connection. For advanced customization, download the latest Nahimic software from the official MSI website to configure 3D sound profiles. Compatibility is broad, making it suitable for PC, console, and mobile gaming setups. For care, store the headset in a dry, cool place and avoid using liquid cleaners directly on the ear cups. Instead, use a dry, soft microfiber cloth to wipe down the exterior surfaces after use to maintain the blue finish.
