You can use any plugin that doesn't affect the sound, just remove it before uploading. However...
As I mentioned earlier, since LUFs needs to evaluate the
entire song from beginning to end, you can use
Orban Loundess meter, it is much better for the job because you can just drag a render into it and see the correct result in a few seconds verses having to wait for the song to play through in Reaper. There are some actions that do similar but A) I forget what they are and B) Orban seems just too easy.
I only use ITB LUFs plugins as sort of a "you are here" meter because I'm not sitting around all day running the song from start to finish in real time just to get the right calculation. Here is a screenshot (not for the contest, just showing how it works).
What you are shooting for with the red arrows above is -14 Integrated and -.2 True peak (Highest reconstructed)
