This presentation will report on a study using normal-hearing listeners that evaluated the efficacy of programs specifically designed for music listening in state-of-the-art hearing aids. In addition, an analysis of signal processing and acoustic features relating to the results will be presented. Following this presentation, attendees will be able to: 1) Describe how hearing aids may negatively impact music perception. 2) Describe key features of real or hypothetical music programs for hearing aids. 3) Describe the efficacy of current music programs in hearing aids Zoom link for remote attendees: https://purdue-edu.zoom.us/j/4326340458 Meeting ID: 432 634 0458 The working schedule is available here: https://purdue.edu/TPAN/hearing/shrp_schedule<http://ogww.mj.am/lnk/AU8AAEukm7AAAchk2HAAALFJlZgAAYCsFQMAnDnUAATD7ABh_T90ybQipdUVQZ20y9CAzjYFPgAEkSo/5/VzPUtXKo0Dowllp_TK_BrQ/aHR0cHM6Ly9wdXJkdWUuZWR1L1RQQU4vaGVhcmluZy9zaHJwX3NjaGVkdWxl> The titles and abstracts of the talks will be added here: https://purdue.edu/TPAN/hearing/shrp_abstracts<http://ogww.mj.am/lnk/AU8AAEukm7AAAchk2HAAALFJlZgAAYCsFQMAnDnUAATD7ABh_T90ybQipdUVQZ20y9CAzjYFPgAEkSo/6/a2vUEcd_J6SQbZdR8Ley5Q/aHR0cHM6Ly9wdXJkdWUuZWR1L1RQQU4vaGVhcmluZy9zaHJwX2Fic3RyYWN0cw>
