[Mary Beth]

@Lynda do you know if ASM3 features for Sonnet2 and Rondo3 are available now in Canada?

Hi @Mary Beth.  I found an email from my audiologist where I was asking about the features in my Sonnet 2s and her reply (dated in May 2021) said that my "Sonnet 2 has ASM 3.0 and access to artificial intelligence". 

This is what my chart says (mostly Greek to me 😁).  This is from October 2021.

Thanks @Lynda

@Ralph34was wondering and I knew you would know!  Smile 

Strategy: fs4-p

FS4-p is the speech processing strategy you are using.  Info can be found here:

https://silenceamidstsound.wordpress.com/2014/12/19/med-el-speech-processing-strategies-fsp-fs4-fs4-p/

 

FS: 100-8500 Hz

This is the frequency range you are set to hear.  100Hz to 8500Hz.  And this was the default values when we were activated.

 

Maplaw: 500

Maplaw is the output compression function.  This is the default value too.

info can be found here 

https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/19301240/

 

 

Compression Ratio: 3:1

compression ratio 3:1 is default as well.

 

 

Default Volume: 90%

your MAP is set at 90% volume so you can both increase and decrease volume by the remote

 

Default Sensitivity: 75%

This is the default setting for the sound bubble the processor gathers audio from.  You can both increase and decrease sensitivity by the remote.

 

AI: Mild ;Directionality: Natural

AI Mild stands for adaptive intelligence mild which is an ASM 3 option.  It uses the natural mic setting.

Here is how adaptive intelligence mild works:

@Mary BethOMG girl - you rock - YOU know everything!  Thanks so much for all this info, I'll have to set aside some time to read through it all.
