** saturation for some sounds (sound is “vibrating”), *
** over-presence of “small” sounds,*
These two seem related to compression, i.e. how much the hearing aids amplify soft intensity sounds.
For severe to profound losses, some long term wearers prefer less compression, and it is not something easy to get used to.
You could request a more “linear” setting, which for phonaks is easy to accomplish.
- SoundRecover is an issue… Is there any way to put back the “old” SoundRecover in Target for Lumity aids ?
Yes - under phonak target setup > fitting session > fitting there is a tick box called “show soundrecover versions in global tuning”. once enabled, your audi will have control over soundrecover version under ‘global tuning’
One other thought is to import your previous naida v hearing aid settings into the new naida L-50 hearing aids. Even though the Naida V is very old, you can still import some of the fundamental settings over to the newer hearing aids, including the frequency curve, compression settings etc
in my experience this works maybe 50% of the time for wearers in your situation, as with old hearing aids there are some factors influencing the sound that cannot be replicated on new hearing aids, including distortion of older circuitry which might now be part of your preferred sound quality.
You would need to make sure you have your old hearing aid settings copied and saved on the audis computer system, and then they can import it using the fitting > transfer fitting function within phonak target.
