MAESTRO System Software 6.0Fittings Made Quick & Easy
For Professionals
Fittings Made Quick & Easy
The MAESTRO System Software 6.0 with the MAX Programming Interface is the quickest
and easiest way to program MED-EL cochlear implants. The MAESTRO System Software
simpli� es � ttings with features designed for convenience, while MAX is a new interface
that provides improved handling and connectivity.
MAX Programming Interface Features
Easy-to-Use Interface
– New bilateral single-unit design is more compact
than previous MED-EL programming interfaces
– Switchless design allows all changes to be made
through the computer interface
– Front and rear LEDs provide status information
about MAX and connected devices
Increased Connectivity Options
– Increased transmission range for more reliable
coupling between MAX Coil and implant
– Two processor ports for easy bilateral � tting
– Transfer of data and power provided
via USB connection
– Trigger connector for tasks requiring
a trigger signal
MAESTRO 6.0* Features
– Support of SONNET Audio Processor
and SYNCHRONY Implant
– Programming support for new SONNET features
– Integrated EAS acoustic � tting
– Support of new MAX Programming Interface
– Auditory Nerve Response Telemetry (ART) is faster
– Impedance and Field Telemetry (IFT) is faster
– Supports Windows 8, 8.1, or higher**
– Compatible with all current multi-channel implants
– Compatible with all currently available
audio processors
SONNET Features
A number of additional programming
features are available when using the
SONNET audio processor.
Automatic Sound Management
Automatic Sound Management 2.0 actively adapts to changing
listening environments, minimising the need for users to
change programs or settings.
– Microphone Directionality is available in three settings:
Omni, Natural, and Adaptive—with optional automatic
switching between Omni and Adaptive.
– Wind Noise Reduction levels can be customised to each
individual user to ensure the best bene� t.
Polar Plot of Natural Ear and Microphone DirectionalityPatterns demonstrate SONNET Microphone Directionality’s ability to effectively mimic the pinna effect of natural hearing.
Simple EAS Fittings
Expanded 6-channel EAS acoustic � tting allows more speci� c
maps to be created, and both the acoustic and the electrical
component can be programmed simultaneously.
Datalogging
Datalogging provides detailed information on usage behavior,
including usage time and volume range of each selectable
program, enabling � tting maps to be easily tailored to your
users’ individual needs.
Better Bilateral FittingFor the � rst time, bilateral � ttings can be done through
a single programming unit. MAESTRO 6.0 makes it easy
to program both sides without the need for two
programming interfaces.
Improved HandlingThe new MAX design incorporates a number of new
features into one compact desktop device. With an integrated
USB power and data connection, it’s easy to control all MAX
features through the MAESTRO System Software 6.0
on your PC.
Faster TelemetryQuicker measurements are possible thanks to a dedicated
telemetry port for a more reliable connection between MAX
Coil and implant, as well as faster Auditory Nerve Response
Telemetry (ART), Impedance and Field Telemetry (IFT), and
estimates of the spatial selectivity of the electrode array.
20 Years of Legacy Product SupportMAESTRO 6.0 and MAX continue to provide support for all
currently available MED-EL multi-channel cochlear implants
and audio processors.

Upgrading to the MAESTRO 6.0* & MAX
Upgrading is quick and easy—simply install the
MAESTRO System Software 6.0 with the included CD,
attach MAX with the USB cable, and you’re ready to go.
System requirements:
– PC or laptop/notebook with supported
Microsoft Windows® operating system**
– Dual-core processor of 1.6 GHz or higher
– 2 GB RAM
– 2 GB free disk space
– Display with a minimum resolution of 1024 × 768
(1280 × 1024 recommended)
– High-power USB port 2.0 or higher
– Connection to printer for hard-copy reports
– CD ROM drive for software installation
MAESTRO 6.0 and MAX have been designed from the ground
up to work seamlessly together. MAESTRO 6.0 supports
database migration from previous software versions, but
is not compatible with the DIB II and other previous
interface versions.
