Claim Text:
1. A hearing aid comprising: a first microphone for providing a first audio input signal; a second microphone for providing a second audio input signal; a signal processor configured for generating a hearing loss compensated audio output signal based at least in part on the audio input signals; a receiver for converting the audio output signal into an output sound signal; and a bandsplit filter configured for generating at least two high pass audio signals and a low pass audio signal, wherein the at least two high pass audio signals are based on the first and second audio input signals, respectively; wherein the signal processor comprises a beamformer operatively connected to an output of the bandsplit filter, the beamformer being configured for receiving the at least two high pass audio signals for generating a high frequency beamformed audio signal; wherein the signal processor further comprises a mixer for mixing the low pass audio signal and the high frequency beamformed audio signal; and wherein the bandsplit filter has an adjustable cross-over frequency for adjustment of a frequency range of the at least two high pass audio signals and a frequency range of the low pass audio signal.
