Abstract: A method of adjusting a signal processing parameter for a first hearing aid and a second hearing aid forming parts of a binaural hearing aid system to be worn by a user is provided. The binaural hearing aid system comprises a user specific model representing a desired asymmetry between a first ear and a second ear of the user. The method includes detecting a request for processing a parameter change at the first hearing aid, adjusting the signal processing parameter in the first hearing aid, and adjusting a processing parameter for the second hearing aid based on the request for processing parameter change and the user specific model.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a method of logging or recording input signal data of a hearing prosthesis in combination with values of one or several variables associated with the hearing prosthesis. The hearing prosthesis variable(s) may comprise logic states of a single or several user-controllable actuator(s) mounted on the prosthesis and/or values of algorithm parameters of a predetermined digital signal processing algorithm executed in the prosthesis. Hereby, error tracking and performance optimisation are facilitated since anomalous or sub-optimal operating conditions of signal processing algorithms and/or user interface control handling or other undesired events may be detected. By recording both the hearing prosthesis variable or variables and the input signal data, it is e.g. possible to identify and track correlations between one or several predetermined signal events in the input signal data and effects to the operation of the hearing prosthesis derived there from.

Abstract: Methods and devices for converting an analog input signal into a digital output signal by means of an analog-to-digital converter are provided. The analog input signal is multiplied by a first adjustable scaling factor to form an analog intermediate signal. The analog intermediate signal is converted into a digital representation. The digital representation is multiplied by a second adjustable scaling factor to form a sample signal, and a third adjustable scaling factor to form the digital output signal. The level of the sample signal is determined and compared to first and second threshold values, with the first threshold value being greater than the second threshold value. The first adjustable scaling factor is increased and the second and third adjustable scaling factors are decreased if the sample signal level is higher than the first threshold value.
