At software informer is says :

We don’t have a download link yet, but you can find it using Google. If you know the download link, you can submit it to share it with other users.

I found the software finally at :

http://www.hearing-am.com/_brand/am-hearing/01-b2b/03-fitting-software/fitting-software.jsp

However still looking for the Siemens database …

i tried this long time ago
and it does not work

I downloaded the Connexx 6.2 software and installed it on my Desktop PC.
However, without any supplier database the software is useless.
So, is there someone who has a copy of the Siemens HA database for Connexx 6.2 :confused:

Re: ADRO vs .

Which is better depends on the type of loss. If the patient has lots of recruitment (which almost always accompanies severe/profound losses) the ADRO is just too slow to handle the job. WDRC can implement a fast slope downward in just a few milliseconds. ADRO must slowly drop the level. (Read the Dynamic Corp. technical bulletin)

Yes ADRO aids have some kind of but at high peaky levels they distort.

ADRO is great for mild/moderate uncomplicated losses. But, the aids do not have the flexibility to fit all types of losses as the WDRC can. Ed

Adro was embrace by phonak @ one point in time, currently none of the big players uses adro - I have not seen any papers saying adro is better than WDRC or otherwise…

If you poll most of the prof. here, they would prob. agree in that most HI from top companies would perform better against AH .

Perhaps we need to poll the audis, His here

I have tested Siemens Pure Oticon Connect and America Hears aids.
Did not like the Siemens. The AH aids are nice and would work for me BUT :slight_smile: there seems to be something lacking compared to Vigo Connect(and other top end models I’d guess).

LOL, what is lacking is the outrageous price! :smiley:

hello everyone.

I’m new to the forum. just received my widex mind 440 aid.

i have uni-laterial hearing loss and have been to my audiologist about 8 times since i received my aid. they are for small adjustments and i tell her exactly what i want her to change and by how much (i have an audio and electronics background so i am sure this makes me super picky).

to make matters worse i work out of the country. my work environment has lots of background noise and i don’t know how the aid will work in this environment. i except that i will need more adjustments. (i’ll be out of the country for 4 or more months once i return to work).

big long background there.

i have the widex compass software. i assume it’s the full version. the only way i can get it to run is to run in simulation in which case it says “compass demo”. i’d hate to buy anything and it not work…

this leads me to my question.

where can i buy cables? i asked my audiologist and she has no interest in providing support for me to program my own. should i find another audiologist?

will the hi-pro work? is there any disadvantage to it over the NOAHlink?

i see lots of hi-pros for sell on ebay. i’ve only seen a NOAHlink once and didn’t think i wanted it at the time.

anyway. hello everyone. awesome forum :slight_smile:

HiPro’s with USB work OK with USB equipped PC’s. The NoahLink uses a USB BlueTooth interface and is much faster. Both do the job but the NoahLink costs a lot more.

Besides the speed difference the NoahLink is battery powered and the patient can move around without tethering wires. For low cost self programming the USB HiPro is perfectly adequate.

I am not sure but I think some of the very early model serial HiPro’s will not work with the some of the latest model aids. Ed

At this time I program the Naida V SP aids with the serial Hi Pro. Maybe others can too.

I have no experience with Widex but I have ordered other cables fromHere3. The link doesn’t go directly to the cables; in the light blue box click on Programming Equipment , then click on picture with Hearing aid Programming Cables.They don’t stock them, they have to be ordered so it takes a couple of weeks to get them. Very honest seller with good (abit slow) communication.
I have a USB HiPro, it’s very small and plenty fast; just a matter of a few seconds to send changes to ’s.
If your going to be out of country, especially if it were someplace like the Middle East, you will need the capability to self program. Best of luck.

Urban myth, based on actual observations. :stuck_out_tongue:

Some of the very early serial Hi-Pro’s desperately need firmware updates. Many fitting software can do that, but not automatically. You have to click yourself through the menus.
