How do i test for tones in the grey out areas?

Oh ok, i will go ahead and give that a try, thanks

Oh ok, so this is something i should do at home? My room is pretty quiet except for my computer fans and NAS fans.

What's in situ?

How would you recommend mitigating the weird sound?

I actually just had my follow up appointment, she was pretty excited once i unveiled i had the ability to make changes myself, she just prefers majors changes to be done by the professionals. She even told me i can reach out to her to get her opinion on a setting change at any time via email.

So if i add the My Music Profile, do i need to make any adjustments or does it use the current prescribed settings

That's fine, thanks for all the help.

Oh ok, that sucks but I edited my msg above that it's common for me to get wax blockage that reduces my ability to hear in my right ear. I don't think I mentioned as well that I got a conductive hearing loss.

They aren't also my audi of choice, I had to go with the one OVR worked with. But another factor in my hearing loss is that I have narrow ear canales do to a tomor in my left side of my face. So earwax builds up easily in my right ear and can reduce my ability to hear out of it a good bit.

Oh ok, I only notice it on the right hearing aid. But i might mention to the audiologist that I may make setting changes myself or should I avoid doing so?

Will the software be able to pull the current programming off the hearing aid and will I be able to backup the configuration before messing around?

Oh ok, I'll prob just stick to not wearing them in the car then, unless the music profile helps with the weird distortion.

For age context I'm 23, and a lot of the music I listen to is edm. So I'm assuming the hearing aids are cutting out some sounds by thinking it's feedback. I think tinitis can play a key role in the fitting as it's hard to distinguish the sounds during testing.

I think I can hear pretty well without, but In my office environment i can notice that my co-workers with deeper voices can be harder to hear. But at home and in my car Ive been not wearing them until I can get to the bottom of the weird feedback sound. Which upon my research is some sort of...
