Abstract:
1. A method for adjusting a hearing aid device, comprising: receiving an input signal with an input converter; converting the input signal to an audio signal with the input converter; processing and amplifying the audio signal as a function of frequency with a signal processing unit; generating an output signal that is perceived by a hearing aid device wearer as an acoustic signal with an output converter; defining a maximum gain of the audio signal at a first and second frequency of the audio signal; determining a target gain of the audio signal at the first and second frequency of the audio signal; setting a resulting gain at the first frequency of the audio signal, automatically increasing the resulting gain compared with the target gain at the second frequency if the resulting gain at the first frequency is limited to the maximum gain, wherein the resulting gain at the second frequency is increased above the target gain at the second frequency and is limited to the maximum gain at the second frequency.
