Yeah. The beauty of this script is that it helps get the loudest sections of each song to be the same level BEFORE any mastering processing. Lots of the normalizing stuff is focused on normalizing for final delivery to broadcast spec etc., but I have been using the SWS RMS short term normalize and now this Short Term Max LUFS to set up mastering sessions before my processing.

It's a quick way to get all songs on the same page, or close to it and then fine tune by ear. This way the songs hit my analog gear at an optimal level and it makes the mastering process easier overall.

In these cases, I don't want the integrated LUFS of the entire item, I want the Max Short Term sections to be all the same. It's a bit more natural to the ear, especially when you have some songs with wide dynamic range and some not.
