Noisebud News: Purr-LUFS 3, Per, MLI & Bear 3! Noisebud, 2026, June 18 It has certainly been a busy month at Noisebud, with new releases, major updates, and several experiments taking shape. Purr-LUFS 3 Purr-LUFS 3 removes the need for manual DAW routing. Purr-Router now sends the dry audio directly to Purr-LUFS outside the DAW routing system, making setup much faster and cleaner. A new Sync function keeps the dry and processed paths aligned, while Pre, Delta, and Bypass now work as radio buttons for quicker navigation.

It loudness-matches the files, hides their identities, and lets you rate what you actually prefer rather than what you expect to prefer.

The project includes Emelie, a free application for comparing different normalization methods through listening tests, and MLI Natural 1.5, the current leading candidate developed within the initiative. The goal is not to replace existing standards overnight, but to investigate whether better alternatives can be found through testing, discussion, and real-world listening.

The special part is still the same: Bear changes the relationship between the fundamental and its first few harmonics using a little bit of “magic”. =) Read more about Bear 3:https://www.patreon.com/Noisebud/posts/161340958/ Or, try the demo!
