Flufs represents a significant advancement in audio analysis tools by combining professional-grade loudness metering capabilities with comprehensive accessibility features. Developed as a Max for Live device for Ableton Live, this tool provides real-time and offline audio analysis with functionalities like multi-channel file evaluation, loudness normalization, and CSV data export. Such features are typically found in premium audio software.

What distinguishes Flufs is its deliberate design for universal accessibility. The audio analysis tool incorporates screen reader compatibility, Braille display support, high-contrast visual themes, and full keyboard navigation. These inclusive elements ensure the tool is equally functional for blind, low-vision, and sighted users. As one might expect, this kind of inclusion is a rarity in music production software, where accessibility is often an afterthought.
