The APU Loudness Compressor is a real-time compressor / expander designed to support modern loudness types (LUFS, True Peak). Since LUFS is a more accurate measure of loudness, the result is very transparent compression, making it particularly well suited for mastering and post-production workflows.
One of the other features of this compressor is the addition of a "Source › Target" mode. In this mode, all loudness measurements inside the source range are compressed or expanded into the target range. In this mode, you don't need to worry as much about whether you're compressing or expanding, you just need to set the source and target ranges to your liking. Compression and expansion are both handled automatically.
