1. A fitting system for programming a separate, programmable hearing aid comprising:

  • a programmable processor coupled to circuitry for transferring parameters from the processor to a programmable hearing aid to specify the performance thereof;

    software, executable by the processor for presenting pre-stored audio stimuli to the hearing aid and circuitry for receipt of real-time feedback from a user of the hearing aid, the feedback being related to the presented pre-stored audio stimuli;

    second software executable by the processor responsive to the user feedback, where the second software implements fuzzy logic processing in responding to the user feedback, to modify the parameters of the programmable hearing aid in accordance with that feedback; and

    additional software for downloading the modified parameters to the programmable hearing aid thereby altering the performance thereof.
