APU Software APU Loudness Compressor is a Windows compressor and expander that shapes dynamics using loudness measurements such as LUFS and True Peak. Rather than relying solely on conventional RMS or peak readings, it uses a loudness-based approach intended to respond more closely to how people perceive audio levels.

The controls focus on source and target loudness ranges instead of the usual threshold-and-ratio setup. Set the range your audio starts in and the range you want it to occupy, and the plug-in applies compression or expansion as needed. This offers a different way to approach dynamic control when perceived loudness is your main concern.

A learn mode can automatically set either the source or target range from the incoming material, giving you a practical starting point for manual adjustments. It suits hobby producers and mixing enthusiasts who want to explore LUFS-based dynamics processing without relying exclusively on traditional compressor controls.
