Possible Hearing Aid Function

<< < (2/3) > >>

dreamlayers:
The equalizer could help reduce noise and make voices easier to understand.  However, it can only be used when playing back the recorded audio.  When the microphone signal is being monitored via headphones, that is a direct analog connection.  Rockbox cannot process the audio going to the headphones.

Thanks guys, I noticed that it works for a decent hearing aid - I can boost the sound around me, but then the mic is also sensitive enough to pick up things like me moving the scrollwheel while I can't make it focus on more "outer" sounds.

Yes, case sounds will be picked up.  The only things you could do about that is to attach a more appropriate type external microphone (easy to hard depending on the DAP in question) or attempt to dampen the sounds of the DAP's shell.

@Soap, so saying we're referring to a Sansa Fuze (v2)?

I think you would have to open up the player and solder in leads for an external mic.
