Audio-Mixing
Audio-Mixing refers to the amplification ratio between the Processor Microphone
and an auxiliary input device. Audio-Mixing allows the child’s Processor Microphone
to remain on when connected to an auxiliary input, such as an active T-Coil, FM
System, or auxiliary device. This is important because it enables the child to hear his
own voice and sounds around him in addition to the input from the auxiliary device.
The Audio-Mixing is set for each program on the Sound Processor by the audiologist
during programming. The default Audio-Mixing recommendation is 50/50. For a
description of the Audio-Mixing options, refer to the table below.
Audio-Mixing Options Processor Microphone Auxiliary Input (i.e. FM System)
Mic Only On Off
50/50 - Mic/Aux* On On
30/70 - Mic/Aux** On (-10dB) On
Aux Only (Atten.) Off On (-20dB)

*For classroom use and the default programming setting
** For noisy environments where greater input is needed from the FM (i.e., theatre,
church, noisy restaurant, etc.)
