Abstract: A monaural or binaural hearing system is configured to generate monaural or binaural beats and includes at least one hearing device having a main signal path. The hearing device also has an auxiliary signal path containing a signal generator for generating a first beat signal. The first beat signal is frequency-shifted relative to a further signal by a beat frequency producing the effect of the monaural or binaural beat for the user during operation. The signal generator is configured such that the first beat signal has, at least in certain operating modes of the hearing device, at least one signal component generated based on the electrical input signal, and hence based on ambient sound, and is denoted as the ambient signal. The beat signal is preferably composed of different signal components, the weighting of which is preferably adjusted depending on a signal level of the input signal.

Abstract: A hearing system in particular a binaural hearing system that is configured to produce monaural or binaural beats and, to that end, has at least one hearing device containing a primary signal path. The hearing device moreover has a secondary signal path, containing a signal generator for generating a first beat signal. The first beat signal being frequency-shifted in relation to a further signal by a beat frequency in such a way that the effect of the monaural or binaural beat is produced for the user during operation. The signal generator has an associated adjusting apparatus that has an adjustable amplifier element. The adjusting apparatus has an analysis unit for determining an instantaneous signal level of the input signal, and the respective adjusting apparatus is configured to set a signal level of the first beat signal on the basis of the instantaneous signal level.

Abstract: A shift element for a vehicle gearbox is designed to be displaced parallel to an actuation direction. The shift element has a mechanism which is designed to convert a drive movement applied to a drive interface of the mechanism into a displacement of the shift element parallel to the actuation direction.
