Mapping question

I am still a couple weeks out from my first mapping and things are coming along, two weeks since activation. Still hard to understand people or TV without subtitles and yeah, all music sounds like techno.

But I had a question for the group. I worked in data centers before getting my implant and I’m currently on sabbatical of sorts until I see if I can go back there. I know background noise is an issue with implants and there’s a ton in data centers, so that might be an issue if I go back. That said, the background noise is from mechanical equipment and a steady pitch and frequency. Does anyone know if I were to get the exact frequency the background noise is at, if I could give it to my audiologist to create a custom “work map” that would basically turn out that frequency and allow the background noise to not be as much of an issue?

To me it seems like something that they should be able to do, but I just don’t know if anyone has ever done it.🤷🏻‍♂️
