You can use COMPASS™ V5 for all Widex hearing aids prior to the WIDEX DREAM™ family.
Although some hearing losses may seem identical, the acoustical implications will always be different from client to client. So while the audiogram gives you a good starting point, it is the acoustical fitting that ensures the most accurate and personalised fitting. With Compass™, the acoustical fitting is based on three different processes to achieve the ultimate precision.
The Sensogram measures the in-situ threshold in either four basic frequency bands or a full range of 14 frequency bands.
The test measures in-situ available gain before feedback and serves as the initialisation point for the feedback cancelling system.
Based on the feedback test, which is already a part of the fitting routine, it is possible to optimise the fitting by taking the total vent effect into account.
