management programmes to relieve suffering from tinnitus.
Explanation of how the device functions
The TSG module is a frequency and amplitude shaped white-noise generator. Noise signal level and fre-
quency characteristics can be adjusted to the specific therapeutic needs as determined by your doctor,
audiologist or hearing healthcare professional.
Your doctor, audiologist or hearing healthcare professional can modulate the generated noise with the
purpose of making it more pleasant. The noise can then resemble, for example, crashing waves on a shore.
