This invention relates to a system for storing cochlear profiles. More particularly, the invention relates to a system for storing cochlear profiles of phonemes including a frequency dispersing circuit receiving at its input the full spectrum of frequencies making up a phoneme and providing multiple individual outputs of seperate narrow frequency bands, each of the bands representing an analog signal of a discrete portion of the phoneme full spectrum and which multiple analog signals define a composite cochlear profile of the phoneme, a sampling switch providing sequentally an output signal of each of the analog signals of the frequency dispersing circuit, an analog-to-digital converter receiving the sequential analog signal outputs of the sampling switch and converting each signal sequentially into a digital signal, a memory storage means connected to receive and store the digital signals, and means of automatically sequentially advancing in synchronization the sampling switch and the memory storage means until each of the discrete portions of the phoneme full spectrum is stored in digital form.
