APU TrueGain is a powerful utility plugin which corrects for a fundamental challenge in audio engineering: a mix’s tonal balance changes depending on the listening level. By modeling the human ear’s frequency sensitivity at different Sound Pressure Levels (SPL), TrueGain allows you to audition and control your audio with perceptual consistency. The core of TrueGain is its ability to perform “translation checks.” After a simple one-time calibration to your monitoring setup, you can use TrueGain to simulate how your mix will sound at different loudness levels, all without changing the actual volume of your monitors or headphones. This allows you to quickly check how the bass will hold up or if the vocals will become harsh in quieter listening environments, ensuring your mix translates reliably.
The APU Dynamics Optimizer is a dynamics optimization tool designed to support modern loudness types (LUFS, True Peak). Underneath the hood, the optimizer uses the same compression engine as the APU Loudness Compressor, but benefits from the full audio waveform instead of real-time measurements. This allows the gain envelope to be meticulously optimized across the entire waveform. The design of this tool allows you to very precisely target a specific average LUFS and dynamic range. Once the gain envelope has been optimized, you can playback the result in real-time while adjusting the character of the sound with the same collection of parameters from the compressor plug-in.
The APU Loudness Compressor plug-in is a compressor/expander designed to support modern loudness types (LUFS, True Peak). Typical compressors operate using only RMS and/or Peak units of measurement. But technology has come a long way since then and we’re overdue for an upgrade.. This compressor uses modern industry standard LUFS units of measurement to provide a far more transparent response which is connected to the way humans actually experience loudness. The entire signal flow of the compressor operates within this more precise understanding of loudness. The plug-in user interface provides a more flexible alternative to traditional threshold-and-ratio style of compressor controls. Instead, source and target ranges of loudness can be configured and the compressor will either compress or expand as needed.
