Know the limits
- Editorial recreation; these settings have not been listening-tested on your setup.
- Champion 40 lacks separate middle controls; the target EQ cannot be matched independently.
- Pickup output, speakers, room, and studio layering remain differences; the numeric mapping is not an acoustic calibration.
- Champion effect timing and mix are approximate starting points; its single FX selector cannot provide every requested effect simultaneously.
