Default Live rock/base rock ratio for new tank

What exactly do you guys mean with base rock?

Should I shoot for 50/50 with LR and BR?

I'm gonna be running a 20, or even a possibly 30 gallon refugium/sump with a 4inch bed of Live sand in a 75 or 90 gallon aquarium. Live sand base for the substrate in the main aquarium.

Thanks.
Chad
