My audiologist uses some Windows based software to access the hearing aids, I'd like a copy, and I don't buy any safety arguments. But I don't know how to analyze the results of a hearing test and convert that into hearing aid settings. I'm not upset that I don't have the software. It's probably just as well. I got copies of the profiles that my audiologist created for my hearing aids. I programmed them into the audio system that my laptop uses. It meant that when I used Skype for telephone calls with minimal adjustment I got very good audio compensation for my hearing loss. With headphones to cut out outside noise this worked well. One thing I was convinced of was my audiologist knew a lot more about hearing compensation than I ever would. The hearing aids I have can deal with frequency shifting as well as frequency gain profiles. In a real world environment it is all about many levels of compromise. My hearing aids have a half dozen environment profiles so that I can select application code in them to cover the situation. Ears can be handled separately or the hearing aids can auto correlate the sound from the direction I am looking. Telephone app in the hearing aids will create audio in both ears from sound picked up from the receiver against one ear and profile gains to deal with the audio profile of the telephone. There is wireless communication between the ears (that can also have a third source) w.. |
