Abstract: Methods, systems, and devices for determining control settings used by a hearing prosthesis to process a sound are disclosed. A first model output based on control settings is received by a computing device configured to fit the hearing prosthesis to a user. A difference between the first model output and a reference output based on normal human hearing at a target frequency is determined. If the difference between the first model output and the reference output at the target frequency is within a specification, the computing device sends a signal to the hearing prosthesis that includes information indicative of the control settings.
