    Abstract: A body worn hearing system comprises a hearing device, e.g. a hearing aid, and a separate microphone unit for picking up a voice of the user. The hearing device comprises a forward path comprising an input unit for providing an electric input signal representative of sound in the environment, a signal processing unit for providing a processed signal, and an output unit for generating stimuli perceivable as sound when presented to the user based on said processed signal. The microphone unit comprises a multitude M of microphones, and a multi-input noise reduction system for providing an estimate Ŝ of a target signal s comprising the user's voice, and comprising a multi-input beamformer filtering unit operationally coupled to said multitude of microphones. The hearing device and the microphone unit are configured to receive and transmit an audio signal from/to a communication device, respectively, and for establishing a communication link between them for exchanging information. The hearing system comprises a control unit configured to estimate a current distance between the user's mouth and the microphone unit, and to control the multi-input noise reduction system in dependence of said distance.
