Method and facility for reproducing synthetically generated signals by means of a binaural hearing system

1. A method for reproducing synthetically generated signals via a binaural hearing system having a first hearing device and a second hearing device, the method comprising the following steps:

reproducing a first signal via the first hearing device;

reproducing a second signal via the second hearing device after the reproduction of the first signal;

delaying the reproducing of the second signal by a defined additional time delay in addition to delays unavoidably occurring due to transmission of a trigger signal from the first hearing device to the second hearing device or from the second hearing device to the first hearing device; and

quantifying the additional time delay to cause a temporal distance between reproducing the first signal and reproducing the second signal to lie in a range from 1 ms to 50 ms, to provide a hearing system wearer with an impression of a broadening;

wherein the first signal and the second signal are synthetically generated signals.

2. The method according to claim 1 , which further comprises quantifying the additional time delay to cause the temporal distance between the reproduction of the first signal and the second signal to lie in a range from 4 ms to 20 ms.

3. The method according to claim 1 , which further comprises quantifying the additional time delay to cause the temporal distance between the reproduction of the first signal and the second signal to lie in a range from 5 ms to 15 ms.

4. The method according to claim 1 , which further comprises raising a signal level of a subsequently reproduced signal during the reproduction in comparison with a signal level of a signal reproduced earlier.

5. The method according to claim 1 , which further comprises providing the sound amplification as an increase in a volume level in a range from 0 to 12 dB.

6. The method according to claim 1 , which further comprises providing the sound amplification as an increase in a volume level in a range from 0 to 3 dB.

7. The method according to claim 1 , which further comprises performing a signal inversion in one of the first or second hearing devices.

8. The method according to claim 1 , which further comprises delaying the reproduction of the first signal via the first hearing device by a first defined time interval.

9. A facility for influencing a reproduction of synthetically reproduced signals in a binaural hearing system, the facility comprising:

a first hearing device reproducing a first signal;

a second hearing device reproducing a second signal, after the reproduction of the first signal by said first hearing device;

the reproduction of the second signal being delayed by a defined additional time interval in addition to delays unavoidably occurring due to transmission of a trigger signal from said first hearing device to said second hearing device or from said second hearing device to said first hearing device; and

the additional time delay being quantified to cause a temporal distance between reproducing the first signal and reproducing the second signal to lie in a range from 1 ms to 50 ms, to provide a hearing system wearer with an impression of a broadening;

wherein the first signal and the second signal are synthetically generated signals.

10. The facility according to claim 9 , wherein a signal level of a subsequently reproduced signal is raised during the reproduction in comparison with a signal level of signal reproduced earlier.

11. The facility according to claim 9 , wherein one of said first and second hearing devices is configured to perform a signal inversion.

12. The facility according to claim 9 , wherein said first hearing device delays the reproduction of the first signal by a first defined time interval.
