Abstract

Bei einem Hörhilfegerät (1) mit einem Richtmikrofonsystem (M1, M2, M3, 4) soll stets ein möglichst hohes Maß sowohl an Richtwirkung als auch an Verstärkung einstellbar sein. Hierzu wird vorgeschlagen, dass die Einstellung der Richtwirkung in Abhängigkeit der augenblicklich eingestellten Verstärkung erfolgt. Insbesondere wird eine maximale Richtwirkung in Abhängigkeit der Verstärkung festgelegt und im Hörhilfegerät gespeichert, die nicht überschritten werden kann. Dadurch wird dem Benutzer stets das größtmögliche Maß an Richtwirkung mit seinem Hörhilfegerät (1) ermöglicht.
