Hearing protection & dosimetry for orchestras
We are dedicated to helping orchestras protect one of their most valuable assets: their musicians’ hearing. Our goal is to provide them with sound exposure data and insights that they can use to do that.
Enhancing dosimetry awareness
Statistics show that the majority of musicians will experience some form of hearing damage during their careers. At Private Ear, we firmly believe that there is no need for that to happen. The focus should be on prevention, which is and remains the sole viable strategy for avoiding noise-induced hearing loss (NIHL). That is why we have developed Private Ear Clear One for in-ear protection.
However, protection alone is not enough. We are also working on a technological solution that offers dosimetry intelligence and insights for entire orchestras.
The world’s best noise dosimeter
We are committed to developing the best noise dosimeter on the planet. We have already taken a number of major steps towards this goal and the results are very promising. Our dosimeter measures exactly at the ear position. This means that we can provide orchestras with unparalleled insights, helping them manage the hearing exposure of their musicians and comply with health and safety regulations.
The solution we are working on will provide real-time dosimetry data from performances, rehearsals and practice so that orchestras can take responsibility for the hearing health of their musicians. To do this, we will use a sensor function that is already built into our in-ear solution, Private Ear Clear One.

Insights
Orchestras have a legal responsibility to protect their musicians from avoidable hearing damage. We know all about that damage and what it does to musicians. This is why we are passionate about providing the tools, insights and knowledge that orchestra managers need to tackle the problem.
