Abstract

A method for operating a hearing device includes generating first and second input signals from a sound signal by using respective first and second input transducers, providing a first angle and an angular range and, with respect to frequency bands, based on the first and second input signals and first angle, forming an attenuation directional signal having relative attenuation at least for a second angle in the angular range about the first angle and thereby setting and an overlay parameter. A gain directional signal is formed based on the first and second input signals and the overlay parameter and/or second angle, having relative gain for the second angle. An angled directional signal is generated from the attenuation directional signal and the gain directional signal. An output signal is generated based on the angled directional signal. A hearing device and a binaural hearing device system are also provided.
