Post-fader metering has not been implemented yet. This has been raised several times on this forum.
There may be a case for post-fader metering, and BlackMagic représentatives have acknowledged the request in other threads and have also indicated that they will take it under consideration for future updates. But, the feature request list apparently could fill a library of books (and I haven’t exactly made it any more manageable).
Pre-fader channel metering, though, is essential for proper gain staging, as it is post-insert processing and obviously pre-fader.
For metering each channel's contribution to the Main Mix, Stems and Downmixes, use the Main and Sub-Mix Buss metering for proper gain staging.
This is traditionally how consoles have implemented metering in the analogue world, but the principle is perhaps even more critical in the digital domain.
