Abstract

A method of adjusting an audio signal equalizer setting. A first and a second equalizer setting are selected from a population of equalizer settings for undergoing a binary comparing decision. The two equalizer settings are presented to a user by consecutively replaying an audio signal filtered by an equalizing unit according to the first or to the second equalizer setting respectively. The user's binary comparing decision between the first and the second equalizer setting according to his preferences is acquired. Further binary comparing decisions are performed until all members of the settings population have been part of a binary comparing decision. A score for the each presented equalizer settings is adapted based on the user's binary comparing decisions results. A weighted averaging is performed, based on the scores, in the frequency domain between the equalizer settings that received a high score, to obtain the result of the equalizer adjustment method.
