Abstract (en)

[origin: EP2648423A2] The method involves presenting first and second acoustic signals (10, 11) originating from first and second virtual positions by a hearing aid device, respectively, where the acoustic signals represent respective setting options of the device. A body part of a user (13) is induced to one of the virtual positions, and a position or movement of the body part of the user is detected. The detected position or movement of the body part is automatically assigned to the virtual position, where the setting option corresponding to the assigned virtual position is chosen. The setting options concern a hearing aid program, volume, pitch, directional characteristics, intercarrier noise suppressor or hearing contents. An independent claim is also included for a hearing aid device.
