Yes, I'm surprised this has to be explained.
Loudneess is Dynamic EQ and it changes with volume.
At the reference point which is 100 or 0dB out of the box means no EQ is applied and with attenuation less than the reference point then EQ is applied.

Hendrik:
Loudness is meant to work on the full signal, why would you want to separate it?
It greatly enhances a suggestion to also provide the motivation/reasoning behind it :)

Wheaten:
Not sure if the topic originator is actual meaning loudness?.

Loudness is introduced to compensate for low and high frequencies, on low volumes where the human hearing is not sensitive enough, as the human hearing is more sensitive in the 300H to 6KHz range. Loudness will amplify outside this range, so from a human exception the sound is more balanced (or equally amplified)

So I don't understand why you would introduce loudness for bass or treble? Loudness is for the full spectrum, bass for the low and treble for the high frequency amplification.

Well the world is our oyster the way I see it.
For example, many audio enthusiasts only want to apply room correction to low frequencies so I see this along the same line.
Aren't you just a little curious to hear what it would sound like? :)

I'm referring to the Loudness funtionality with JRiver of which I've provided links for.
For better or worse (subjective) it will surely sound different.
I would defintely apply bass Loundess and possibly NOT apply treble Loudness.
