High performance ChannelFree™ signal processing Why is Vérité such a success? One reason is the high performance ChannelFree™ signal processing. ChannelFree™ processing works at phonemic speed to precisely amplify even the shortest elements of speech. Gain is applied 20 000 times a second without dividing the signal into channels or bands.

“Hearing aids? Not for me! A lifetime of exposure to jet and other aircraft engine noises have made a mess of my hearing. I knew that. But I wasn’t going to subject myself to having things stuck in my ears simply because other people said I should. After all, how could I be troubled by what I wasn’t hearing?
