Summary:A method for fitting a hearing compensation device (100) comprises selecting a plurality of loudness levels for a plurality of frequencies and comparing each loudness level for each frequency for perceived sameness. The loudness levels may then be adjusted (116) as needed to achieve perceived sameness across the frequency spectrum. A gain curve for each frequency is calculated from the selected plurality of loudness level. L'inveniton concerne un procédé permettant de régler un dispositif de compensation auditive. Ce procédé consiste à sélectionner plusieurs niveaux sonores pour une pluralité de fréquences et à comparer chaque niveau sonore pour chaque fréquence afin de détecter une similarité de perception. Les niveaux sonores peuvent ensuite être ajustés selon les besoins pour assurer la similarité de perception dans le spectre de fréquences. Une courbe de gains est calculée pour chaque fréquence à partir de divers niveaux sonores sélectionnés.
