YouTube Target Reference

Basis: Working playback reference.

YouTube adjusts playback volume but does not publish -14 LUFS as an upload requirement; this is a practical production reference. These checks validate the APU product recipes on deterministic stereo material; they do not certify platform or broadcaster acceptance.
