CHICAGO, Aug. 8, 2024
/PRNewswire/ -- Beltone, one of America's top rated
hearing care providers, will be launching the first-ever Auracast™
broadcast audio portable microphone with the new Beltone
Multi-Mic+ along with additional Auracast-ready Beltone
Serene™ hearing aid styles on August 22,
2024. Designed to work seamlessly with Beltone Serene
hearing aids, the Multi-Mic+ will help individuals with hearing
loss navigate noisy environments by amplifying the voices of one or
multiple speakers while still allowing them to hear other sounds
around them.
The innovative Multi-Mic+ is the first portable microphone in
the world to feature Auracast, the next generation of assistive
listening technology, enabling users to stay connected to news and
entertainment wherever they are. With a push of a button, audio
streams directly to the user's Beltone Serene hearing aids allowing
clear, uninterrupted sound at their preferred volume. Additionally,
the Multi-Mic+ also supports Telecoil, FM systems, and DAI/direct
audio input, providing versatile connectivity options for a smooth
listening experience.
Beltone is also expanding its Beltone Serene lineup with the
launch of its smallest wireless In-the-Canal (ITC) hearing aid and
new wireless CROS Behind-the-Ear (BTE) style. The Beltone Serene
ITC hearing aid utilizes traditional batteries and provides a
discreet and comfortable hearing solution with great wireless
connectivity for streaming audio from smartphones and accessories.
Additionally, the Beltone Serene CROS BTE hearing aids are
rechargeable and offer another solution for individuals with
single-sided deafness, complementing the previously released and
well-received Beltone Serene CROS Receiver-in-Ear (RIE) style. Both
styles are Bluetooth® Low Energy (LE)-enabled allowing for an
enhanced listening experience and providing the gateway to
Auracast, which will open up a world of possibilities for
connectivity.
"We are proud to be at the forefront of offering
Auracast-ready hearing aids and devices during this exciting time
for assistive listening technology. The advanced features of
Beltone Serene hearing aids, along with the new Multi-Mic+, will
empower individuals with hearing loss to connect with the world
around them in unprecedented ways. Our commitment to enhancing the
lives of our patients through cutting-edge solutions underscores
our dedication to delivering quality, comfort, and
connectivity." – David
Molella, President of Beltone North America.
