Abstract (en)

[origin: EP2306756A1] The method involves recording an acoustic input signal, converting the acoustic input signal into an electrical input signal, and identifying a hearing situation using the electrical input signal. A parameter relating to signal processing is adjusted based on the hearing situation. A question is selected from a list of questions based on the hearing situation. The selected question is presented to the user, and a user input is acquired as a reaction of the user to the selected question. The parameter of the signal processing is tuned in a behind-the-ear hearing aid (1) based on the user input. An independent claim is also included for a hearing aid or hearing aid system comprising an input transducer.
