Sound Diverse
Soundiverse is an app-based auditory training program that helps children and adults who find it hard to identify where sounds are coming from or to understand speech when there’s background noise.
The program runs for 10 weeks and involves short daily sessions on a mobile phone or tablet. Users play a listening game that gradually trains the brain to separate sounds by focusing on the important ones and ignoring the rest. While the app’s menus are in English, the listening tasks themselves don’t rely on language, so people who speak other languages can still take advantage of the training.
Soundiverse is based on more than ten years of research showing that auditory training can improve real-world hearing skills. Good-quality headphones are recommended so the sound cues are delivered accurately.
Typically a clinician will oversee the process, checking progress and helping users stay on track. Children should be supervised. Most people start off needing the target sounds to be much louder than the background noise, and over time, with training, this difference is reduced.
Soundiverse suits people formally diagnosed with Spatial Processing Disorder (SPD) or specific difficulties hearing speech in noise.
Soundiverse will be available in the near future, contact us to find out more.d
