Abstract
Various implementations include hearing assist devices and systems for processing audio signals. In particular implementations, a process includes receiving an input signal via a microphone; performing a sound pressure level (SPL) shift that decreases a gain of the input signal to generate a gain reduced audio signal; amplifying the gain reduced audio signal using dynamic range compression to generate an amplified audio signal; generating a noise reduced amplified signal using active noise reduction that simultaneously processes the input signal; and outputting the noise reduced amplified signal to an electrodynamic transducer.
