Listening in Quiet and Noisy Environments
Your Indigo hearing devices have a directional
microphone system to meet your listening needs in
different environments. The directional system focuses
on sounds in front of you (i.e., speech) while reducing
sounds from the sides or behind you (i.e., noise). The
directional system can be set to track moving noise
sources and adapt to changing noise levels so that
background noise is reduced. Your hearing healthcare
professional can tell you how your directional system has
been customized for you and which listening programs
have the directional microphones activated.
In addition, Indigo contains technology that identifies and
minimizes sudden impulse sounds that many hearing
device wearers find irritatingly loud such as slamming
doors or clattering dishes. This technology is designed to
increase listening comfort in adverse listening situations
without impacting sound quality or your ability to
understand conversations.
Replacing the Microphone Protectors
Your Indigo hearing devices have a shield to protect the
microphones from dirt and debris. Debris on the
microphone protector reduces the sound quality of the
instrument. You should have the microphone protectors
replaced by your hearing healthcare professional
approximately every three months to ensure optimal
sound quality.
