Thanks so much for replying to my post. Defgrl :) I thinks its so funny that you also put your hearing aids on "T" it works so well for canceling out tinnitus. My tinnitus is so loud without my hearing aids in. Its so loud that it makes me in a bad mood and makes it hard to sleep. lol I think...

LOL! :) I live on my Iphone as well. I used to have a Nokia E50 and I could only hear on it if it was on speaker phone and held up to my hearing aids. I could never use it in public since everyone could hear the conversation. lol That is the only way I can talk on a phone is through speaker...

Hi. :) I wear 2 Phonak Naida V UPs hearing aids and have fallen asleep a few times with them in. My ears hurt after that. I take them out at night and place them in the drying jar over night. There has been a few times, where I will wake up with them in, even though I do not remember putting...

Hi. :) I have had a hearing test like that when I was younger. It is just a hearing test where they have you leave your hearing aids on and they do the test through a speaker that is in the booth with you. They want to see how much help your hearing aids are to you. With me, they tested my...

I have played synthesizers for 20 years, since before I had a severe hearing loss, I still write music everyday and I also have a YouTube channel as well. I will never give up on playing synthesizers and bringing synth-pop back to kick some a...! :) Here is my synth set up: All of my...

My dream synthesizer is the awesome ROLAND JUPITER-8!! Its analogue, warm sounding, is just gorgeous in design with lots of bright colors and switches/knobs and its one HUGE synthesizer! I love any synthesizer from the 80s, but the Jupiter-8 is totally AWESOME!! :) TSF

Hi everyone :) I have worn both Phonak and Oticon. When I first got hearing aids at 13, they were Phonak. I dont know if its because they were the first set of hearing aids I had, but Phonak has always been my favorite. I wore Oticon personic plus, hearing aids and I did not like them at all...

Hi. :) My name is Danielle and I wear 2 Phonak Naida V Ups. I love my hearing aids to pieces and wear them 24/7, well almost. LOL Anyway, I am trying to sort out an issue that I have had for about 14 years, but worse in the last few years. When I have my hearing aids in, my left ear that has the...

Hi. :) I wear 2 purple Phonak Naida V Ups hearing aids. I wear them as soon as I wake up and only take them out to go to sleep. the audi says that the computer shows that I wear them 16 hours a day on average, but I wear them as long as I am awake. In the morning, when I turn my hearing aids on...

I do the same thing. I am always saying sorry to everyone. I have Phonak Naida V UP hearing aids and they are wonderful for environmental noises but not much better for speech, except for the letter S. My friends are frustrated with me because they assume that my speech understanding is going to...

Nice to meet you Sze. Hope your project goes well. Very interesting to read about. I wanted to mention to you guys that I did another kind of experiment with my synthesizers and the TV. LOL I hooked up a Roland D-50 which is a Linear Arithmetic synthesizer (subtractive) and I connected the line...

Hi !! Glad it made sense! I tend to write a lot. :) With my hearing aids in I can hear from C3 (130.813)Hz, to C6 (1046.50) kHz. Notes that are close to those notes start sounding out-of-tune and I can't tell what note I am hearing. Notes that are to the more extreme end of the low frequencies...

Hi. Hope you are doing well. I think Phonak Naida are great and have plenty of power to them. My sister and I have lost more hearing, mine over 8 months time, and we both have Naida hearing aids. No one seems to be able to tell us why this is happening. It is good to know that if there needs...

Ok. I am back. I have done a few different experiments in the studio and have a list of notes. The two keyboards that I used for this is a Roland A-90 weighted hammer action electronic piano with 88 keys. The other is a Yamaha Motif 6 production synthesizer. One has heavy velocity sensitive keys...

Hi everyone! Just read this post. A very interesting topic. I do agree that it is easier to learn to play if you are late deafend, but that doesnt mean its impossible. You could lable the keys correctly and also learn to read notes and the play it sort of how a midi file would play out. You can...

Hi! I think that this is a great topic. I think it would be great to have more deaf musicians on tv and on the radio too. I started composing music when I was 6 years old and have composed and played music everyday for the last 20 years. I am also a synthesizer programmer and program all my...

Hi. Cool to see all the other musicians here! Gotta have music. I am 26 years old and have been playing piano and synthesizers since I was 6 years old. I started teaching myself how to play piano at 6 years old by stealing my mother's electronic keyboard and learning every preset song on it...

I sure will! This ought to be fun. :)

Hi. I have never heard of this syndrome before but it is interesting. I have very bad tinnitus in both ears but worse in my left. I also have this weird kind of "shifting tinnitus" as I call it. I only happens in my left ear and I can hear it through my hearing aids. It is a high pitched...

Hey, Great idea! I have been working with my synthesizers in the same way to find which way is best for playing piano/synthesizer with a severe/profound hearing loss. I can not hear frequencies below 250hz or above 3kHz at 90db. I have tried playing my keyboards through my Icom which works...
