I just got a ConnectClip and have a question regarding controlling the hearing aids mics and the remote mic on the ConnectClip separately. I know that you can mute the hearing aids mics by holding down on the Volume Down button on the ConnectClip (so you get no distraction when hearing streaming sound from the ConnectClip used as a Remote Mic).
However, according the to Oticon FAQ below (third item down at the bottom), you can use the ON app to control the ConnectClip’s Remote Mic volume independent of the OPN hearing adis volume. But I tried it on the ON app and I don’t see a way to do that. If I choose the Remote Mic mode, OK I can control the Remote Mic streaming volume there, but I don’t see any volume control for the OPN hearing aids in parallel while in the Remote Mic mode.
Has anyone figured this out? Thanks.
PS. I know that while the ON app control as mentioned above doesn’t seem to work, you can achieve the independent volume effect by using the iPhone MFI control to vary the OPN mic volume slider and the Remote Mic volume slider independently. However, while the Remote Mic volume slider doesn’t affect the OPN mic volume, the OPN mic volume has an effect on both the Remote Mic volume and the OPN mic volume at the same time. Not very well thought on out Oticon’s part on this. The OPN mic volume should not have an effect on the Remote Mic volume.
Also, instead of using the iPhone MFI control for for OPN Mic volume adjustment, I suppose one could just use the hard buttons on the OPN to achieve the same thing. Incremental adjustment on the OPN hard button may change both OPN mic and Remote mic volumes at the same time (like with the MFI OPN Mic slider), however, a mute via the OPN mic hard button (or the equivalent of holding down on the ConnectClip volume down button) will mute the OPN mic completely and you can vary the Remote Mic volume independently in this case, either via the MFI Remote Mic volume slider, or via the Connect Clip up/down volume buttons.
