Fitting rationales
Oticon Agil’s proprietary Voice Aligned Compression (VAC)
implements curvilinear compression comprising multiple
kneepoints to ensure a smooth frequency response at all
input levels.
This is prescribed for adults.
For kids, Oticon Agil instruments are prescribed with the
DSL v5.0a rationale.
NAL NL1 and DSL v5.0a rationales can be used as optional
prescriptions for any user.
Introducing the Oticon Agil family
Oticon Agil is the premium hearing solution. Oticon Agil uses
the full potential of the RISE platform and delivers state of the
art performance.
The end user benefits with Oticon Agil is better understanding
AND more energy to function in all aspects of life.
The Oticon Agil family comprises a full range
of instruments
— CIC and CIC Power instruments
— ITC and ITE instruments
— miniRITE and RITE instruments with Power options
— BTE instruments with Corda as option
— dedicated compact BTE Power instruments.
Oticon Agil is designed with a new and powerful signal
processing kernel with a unique ability to preserve speech
dynamics in any listening environment. With Spatial Sound 2
and Speech Guard, users can hear more naturally and under-
stand a lot more while preserving mental energy. Spatial
Sound 2 is the result of a range of features working in parallel
helping users to organize the world of sounds and making
sound sources appear as in real life. Speech Guard works to
maintain signal fidelity within the dynamic range of speech
and improves the ability to follow speech, even in complex
environments.
Flexible Receiver system
With miniRITE and RITE instruments, a new flexible Receiver
system is introduced and allows configuring these instruments
to gradually become more powerful. The system builds on
three different types of Receivers (S, M and P) thereby creat-
ing three different output levels from the same instrument
style.
CAUTION: It is critical that the Receiver selected in the pro-
gramming step is the one attached to the actual instrument.
If not, the output level of the instrument will not match the
programmed settings and may cause damage to the client’s
hearing.
