The audio processor unit includes at least one lookup table of coefficients corresponding to a plurality of possible aircraft pitch and roll orientations and at least two selectable multipoint finite impulse response filters. The first selectable multipoint finite impulse response filter having a first coefficient selected by the audio processing unit from the lookup table based upon the aircraft pitch data and roll data for varying the audible signal to the stereo headset left side. The second selectable multipoint impulse response filter for varying the audible signal to the stereo headset right side having a second coefficient selected by the audio processing unit from the lookup table based upon the aircraft pitch data and roll data.
