LFE / Sub metering
Hello,
Just a quick question regarding LFE channel metering. What are typical, or normal level for a LFE/sub rumble as not to overpower the rest of the mix? I'm mixing a low budget short where the director has asked for a very specific low frequency rumble. But I just wanted to get a ballpark how you all mix something like this? Specifically RMS levels, or any other ways, advice etc..

Re: LFE / Sub metering
Calibrate your system (I use the ATSC test tones since I do a lot of broadcast TV), and then mix to taste.

Re: LFE / Sub metering
And after the Lfe calibration, maybe play/rip the Bluray of "Megamind" : https://www.gearslutz.com/board/post...-blu-rays.html
To get a rough idea.
