very interested here - was there ever a time / date decided?
Great!
Toronto Canada time5 minutes drive from the Phonak Office–I’m a senior and would like to volunteer for focus groups testing high end Phonaks before release

So you managed to join a research group? Great!
I am aware that you can’t talk too much about this due to obligations.
@Baltazard - Yesss! I hope so. And, hopefully one with a UP CROS FINALLY, @Phonak?

Apologies all, I got busy after returning home from Sydney. I will touch base with Phonak to see when they’d like to do it.

Having had tinnitus for 40+ years, I’d be interested to know if Phonak’s AI system can help with understanding speech in noise. It’d be wonderful if the system can help to a similar extent to that demonstrated with environmental background noise in this Phonak Spheric Speech simulation: https://youtu.be/jcd3jKE9Oxs
Is this specifically about AI ?
Is it about future features, current potential?
Could this be an opportunity to ask questions about quirks in the App?
About Auracast enabling firmware upgrade?
and even a general firmware upgrade - I don’t think the Spheres have had any yet.?
Maybe there could be a specific THREAD here in the forum, for each Manufacturer that consolidates user requests/complaints ?
Thank you !

Hearing aids have the ability to use microphones such as Phonak Roger On In. Is it possible to adjust the settings so that I can actually hear the sound from the microphone and modify the settings?

Does Phonak plan to introduce solutions for severe hearing loss in the audeo model? Please look at my audiogram - I have special UP molds for Audeo hearing aids, but I lack power in noise (in noise the hearing aids are too quiet and I am unable to hear speech despite changes in the phonak target program), I heard speech best in quiet situations without noise - which is relatively rare. I want to say that I felt that the sound was CLEARER and understandable in the Audeo model, which confirms that I had no major problems with phone calls, while in the naida lumity hearing aids I struggle with creaking, feedback and other issues. Am I the one who is uninformed and should consider new molds? Can you recommend something?
Thank you!
Best regards,
Michael

Next question:
Do they plan to include DNN in Roger microphones’ lineup?
The Roger streaming programme has its own Fitting section, so your Audiologist can make adjustments.
On your 2nd point, there are many things that you can try in Target to improve Speech in Noise. What works for me is having beamforming high, but other noise reduction sliders low or off. I also boost the G50 from about 1k up. I allow 3dB overtuning too. This works for me, but may not work for you.

By the way, @AbramBaileyAuD when is this AMA happening?

I think he meant the ability to fitting with Roger-derived input “in real time,” as with hearing aid microphones in another programs.

Another question:
Could my Phonak app use more than one pair of hearing aids? For example, I would like to use that app not only for my previous Paradise, but also with my new Sphere 90.
Now I must use my old smartphone for another hearing aid, or install my Phonak Junior, which doesn’t support the Infinio lineup.

When - please tell ?
I heard that a first version for moderate losses should be released within the year: is this reliable news? And for serious/deep losses, how long will we have to wait?
Sorry for the huge delay on this. There are a bunch of time zones involved, so it’s been tough. It’s looking like it will be happening in early June (sorry), but I will be back soon with a specific date/time. Thank you all for your patience. Hopefully you have some good questions brewing.

I’d be interested to know if Phonak are looking at applying DEEPSONIC to Roger. A Spheric mode in a revised Select type device would be very useful.
