Perfectly normal. Nothing wrong with asking to verify fluid level in the trans but I bet it will come back fine.

I'll also guess that it shifts better.

1000-1500 is in the range where the engine firing pulses can jostle the gears around in the transmission. The factory transmission fluid is super thick. It quiets down the normal clatter made by the free gears when it's operated down that low.

I bet if you slow down in second gear and step onto the throttle down low you'll get the same noise.

I'll guess it was filled using a more reasonable fluid but will be a little noisier down there.
