NEW FEATURES YOU CAN RELY ON

Multi-Voice Focus │ Voice stabilizer │ Sound Pro 3.0 │ Bluetooth LE Audio

 

REXTON REACH

Rexton Reach is the new platform which is powered by Multi-Voice Focus and Blueotooth LE Audio - allowing users to reach out and being heard more reliably. Multi-Voice Focus will provide our most advanced group conversation experience especially in noisy environments. The Reach platform is also ready for Bluetooth LE Audio – the next generation of Bluetooth Connectivity.

Multi-Voice Focus

For hearing aid users, conversations with background noise are a serious challenge. Things get even more complicated when several people are involved as normal hearing aids operate on a line-of-sight principle. Rexton Reach is now introducing Multi-Voice Focus with 4 focus beams that constantly scan the surrounding environment 1000 times a second, allowing it to focus on multiple speakers at the same time. It constantly adapts to the changing dynamics of the conversation by boosting the prominence of those in the group who are speaking whilst even reducing background noise.

HOW DOES IT WORK?

  1. Track and detect multiple voices in 180° - 1.000x/sec.

  2. Activate new types of beams to reach speakers and follow them as they move

  3. Separate target speech from background noise to process them separately

Voice Stabilizer

Voice Stabilizer controls the compression to ensure that even in very loud environments voices are amplified in the most linear way.  It keeps the positive Sound to Noise Ratio to help users focusing on the signal with most contrast. Benefit: voices remain untouched while surrounding noise is managed.

HOW DOES IT WORK?

Voice Stabilizer is an update to the existing Voice Ranger.

When background noise gets louder SNR is compromised.

Voice Stabilizer controls the compression knee points to secure that all voices within the focus beam are amplified in the best linear ways. 

The separate processing of speech (in different beams/streams) and noise allows for more aggressive compression of the noise and more linear (and stable) processing of the speech - ensuring a strong contrast between speech and noise.

SoundPro 3.0

SoundPro 3.0 automatically steers all sound processing features, including the new Multi-Voice Focus* inputs, based on the analysis of the acoustic scene. When changing the strategy to Natural Focus or Speech Focus, the recommended balance of features is modified. The Balanced Focus is recommended for enhanced automatic performance./n*only for 2-Mic devices and binaural fittings.

HOW DOES IT WORK?

Traditional hearing aids classify listening environments into a limited number of situations because they are  based on modulation and intensity of signal.

Multi-Voice Focus adds a new layer of reliable processing. SoundPro 3.0 is now automatically steering all the sound processing including localization of active talkers and their proximity, number of conversation partners, turn taking and timing. 

And this whole analysis has, in parallel, a very robust binaural wireless link transmitting those processing info from one HA to another, to assure precise synchronizing.

Bluetooth LE Audio

The new Reach platform is ready for Bluetooth LE Audio – the next generation of Bluetooth Connectivity. It is especially relevant to the latest Android devices allowing headset mode and tap control (phone streams to HI and HI MIC streams back to phone; user can accept / terminate call on HI) with very low power consumption. This feature will be made available via firmware update in the near future.
