Overall Gain Slider/ Volume Control

The HearSource hearing aid programming software features a Overall Gain Slider or Volume Control.  This slider adjusts the volume of the selected hearing aid higher (louder) or lower (softer). The number displayed to the left of the slider shows the set volume in a negative number.  This means that the negative number is the decibels lower from full on gain which is O .  The -25  is 25dB softer from full on gain.   Adjust this slider up for louder or down for softer.  When turning sounds softer or louder your applying the changes to all the frequencies equally.  If fine tuning of a specific frequency is needed then adjust the individual frequency in the 12 band equalizer.
