Level adjustment & surround channel level expectation
Even though you adjust the surround channel to be as loud as the others on the test signal, you'll find that on actual program material the surround chan- nel is usually much lower than the front. Don't be tempted to readjust the surround level; program pro- ducers use surround mostly for subtle atmospherics and ambience, and only rarely for special effects. A good surround mix doesn't call attention to itself; if it did, it would soon become distracting.
