Digital Sound Processing Diminishes Problem Of Too Soft And Too Loud Noises!

March 29th, 2008

BTE digital hearing aids can treat continuous noise differently that they process short duration noises. It only makes sense that, for instance, you would be more interested in the sound of the doorbell than in the sound of the air conditioner running. They also minimize feedback by both their circuitry and by the way the ear mold fits into the ear. Another problem BTE digital hearing aids correct is recruitment. This is when a person with hearing loss has trouble because soft noises sound too soft and loud noises sound too loud.  Digital sound processing diminishes this problem. Some BTE digital hearing aids offer two microphones to focus on what is in front of the wearer. This is called directionality. It allows for less distraction from the surrounding environment.
