Abstract (en)

[origin: WO2012041373A1] The aim of the invention is to reduce artefacts during frequency compression of an audio signal in a hearing device, in particular a hearing aid. Said aim is achieved by a method in which an amplitude information of a source channel, for example a spectral envelope, is obtained from several frequency channels of the audio signal. An amplitude corresponding to the amplitude information is then applied on a signal in a target channel (15) of the several frequency channels, on which the source channel is represented during frequency compression.
