Smart Volume Normalization
Smart Volume NormalizationTM (SVN) automatically keeps all music or video/TV
audio output at a constant level to reduce manual adjustment hassles inherent
with sound sources of different loudness. It allows you to listen to various content,
like MP3, TV program, DVD video and even games with consistent sound level.
The following graph shows how different signals 1 & 2 achieve the same level (for
example, 10dB below full scale) after you turn on SVN. For lower volume music 2,
it becomes louder when you turn on SVN. For higher volume music 1, it becomes
quieter.

LFE Crossover Frequency
Adjusts the cut-off frequency (20~250Hz) for LFE (low-frequency effects) signals.
Xonar Essence ST filters out the bass signals below the crossover frequency
from small speaker channels and forwards them to the subwoofer. The higher the
crossover frequency, the more bass signals are subtracted.
