摘要： The method for providing a user of a hearing device with speech sound comprises the step of a) providing in the hearing device speech-representing data representative of speech-bound contents. The speech-bound contents is encoded in said speech-representing data in a compressed way by means of a set of encoded-speech-segment data, wherein each of the encoded-speech-segment data of the set is indicative of one speech segment, and wherein the speech-representing data comprise a multitude of the encoded-speech-segment data.And it also comprises the steps of b) deriving from the multitude of the encoded-speech-segment data audio signals representative of the speech-bound contents by composing audio signal segments derived by decoding the multitude of encoded-speech-segment data; and c) converting the so-derived audio signals into speech sound by means of an output converter of the hearing device. Preferably, the encoded-speech-segment data are MIDI data, wherein MIDI stands for Musical Instrument Digital Interface. For example, the speech-bound contents is the contents of an audio book or news to which the user wants to listen.

摘要： A method for adjusting a hearing device is disclosed in which one of several hearing programs can be selected, as well as a hearing device system to perform the method. The method comprises the steps of identifying a momentary acoustic surround situation and of arranging the selectable hearing programs according to the identified momentary acoustic surround situation. Therewith, the hearing device user is not obliged to know a predefined sequence of the selectable hearing programs; instead the hearing device user may easily select a hearing program which is regarded as the best one for the momentary acoustic situation. The selection is offered by the hearing device by analyzing the momentary acoustic situation. In addition, the hearing device user may easily select other hearing programs, namely by generating an activation signal, for example by pressing a button at the hearing device itself or at a remote control. For this, the automatic arrangement of the hearing programs in dependency of the momentary acoustic situation facilitates the selection dramatically.
