Try listening

Use Before and After on the same passage. Adjust the bands manually, then Apply. For Bass and Acoustic, use the manual parametric editor; guitar-specific measurement recommendations are not available for every instrument.

Things to watch

The 10 EQ bands differ from the 20 meter-analysis bands. A response curve describes the filter rather than the output spectrum. Choose the analysis scope before applying recommendations.

Open the definition on a control label to understand its function. The same label can mean different things in different effects. Compare the active and bypassed sound at similar levels.
