Speechmap Setup

Speechmap provides a number of different test stimuli for fitting hearing aids and testing various aspects of their
performance. Each time you run a test, you have the opportunity to select the stimulus from a list. You can
manage which stimuli appear on this list by doing the following:

Click

and click on [Speechmap] in the Setup menu.

The available Speechmap stimuli are in two columns. The left-hand column contains the MPO stimulus and
speech stimuli that have the specific Long-Term Average Speech Spectrum (LTASS) required when matching
prescription fitting targets such as DSL or NAL-NL1. The MPO stimulus (used to verify that the maximum
output SPL of the hearing aid does not exceed the uncomfortable level) is always selected. You must select at
least one of the defined LTASS speech stimuli.

1. To select a stimulus, click the stimulus you want to add to the list. A check mark will be placed next to the

selected stimulus.
