[PD] LKFS or LUFS-based compression?

[katja]

Frankly I had to ask Wikipedia what LKFS and LUFS is. They are
loudness standards, they don't indicate compression method.

Here's a peculiar method which uses detection of instantaneous
amplitudes instead of peak sample values:

>From an engineer's viewpoint this approach is highly debatable and you
wouldn't use it for all purposes. But it reacts super fast to
transients. I use it on acoustic input in live performance.
