I am a newbie learning all that I can about hearing aids and their programming. My aids are Phonak Audeo Spheres.
I am at the stage where I have the Target software installed on my computer, with a Noah wireless device on order.
I would like to create my own audio-gram to compare with the gram from the audiologist.
(I rather suspect there is a can of worms creeping up on me now)
So, has anyone any idea on how to do this and what equipment and / or software do I need please?
(Don’t mention a padded cell please )
As always, thanks for your replies. It is appreciated.
[quote=“Zebras, post:3, topic:98061”] You just need a quiet room to run AudiogramDirect.

Or a good sound canceling head phone.
Just remember the aud’s audiogram is just a starting point (not the holy grail) done in his booth with his equipment and knowledge level .
Audiogram direct (or In-situ as resound calls it) is using your aids with your ear molds and your perception of the sound, and you can lower and raise the volume till you get all frequences equal. Probably a little like the aud doing Real Ear .
And always redo the in-situ after changing molds or domes or receivers.
Firstly, when the Noahlink Wireless arrives, I’d save the existing settings, then setup a new profile. You’ll then have the original to fall back on if you need a reset.
Once done, enter your Audiogram details in the new profile, then do the feedback/real ear and an Audiogram Direct. If you feel you’re lacking clarity, there are many things that can help
