Abstract

An input transducer () of a hearing aid () converts audio from the environment into an electric input signal. A signal processor () amplifies and conditions the electric input signal according to a preset set of audio processing parameters, and an output transducer () reproduces output audio. The hearing aid () is connected with a personal communication device () via a short range radio communication link (). The personal communication device () identifies music included in the background noise. The personal communication device () retrieves a music stream based on the identified music, and streams the music stream to the hearing aid (). The signal processor () of the hearing aid () combines the input signal from the input transducer () and music signal in order to reduce the presence of the music included in the background noise from the audio signal delivered by the output transducer ().
