Thats a unique idea.You should consider the following idea to enhance your idea so that it would impact uniquely: The spectrum of spoken sentences was partitioned into quarter-octave channels and the onset of each channel shifted in time relative to the others so as to desynchronize spectral information across the frequency axis. Human listeners are remarkably tolerant of cross-channel spectral asynchrony induced in this fashion. Speech intelligibility remains relatively unimpaired until the average asynchrony spans three or more phonetic segments. Such perceptual robustness is correlated with the magnitude of the low-frequency (3-6 Hz) modulation spectrum and thus highlights the importance of syllabic segmentation and analysis for robust processing of spoken language. High-frequency channels (>1.5 kHz) play a particularly important role when the spectral asynchrony is sufficiently large as to significantly reduce the por in the low-frequency modulation spectrum (analogous to acoustic reverberation) and may thereby account for the deterioration of speech intelligibility among the hearing impaired under conditions of acoustic interference (such as background noise and reverberation) characteristic of the real world.
