Abstract (en)

Method and device for sound signal processing in a signal processing device including a main signal path comprising input means (1,2), a signal processor unit (3), and output means (4,5), the signal processor (3) being controllable via several control parameters supplied from a programmable controller (6). The control parameters are generated continuously and dynamically in the programmable controller as a function of at least the sound environment. Further parameters can be supplied to the programmable controller for influencing the generating of control parameters for the signal processor, such as: the signal to be processed and/or the output signal from the signal processor unit and/or time of day and/or ambient temperature and/or ambient air humidity and/or ambient light and/or telecoil detection and/or voice recognized spoken control words etc. Although the invention is intended primarily for use in hearing aids, many other uses can be envisaged. <IMAGE>
