  Chiral effects exhibit peculiar universality in idealized theoretical limits.
However, they are known to be infrared sensitive and get modified in more
realistic settings. In this work, we study how the corresponding conductivities
vary with the constituent mass. We concentrate on a pionic realization of
chiral effects which provides a better control over infrared properties of the
theory. The pionic medium is considered at finite vector and axial isospin
chemical potentials in the presence of an external magnetic field. This system
supports electric and axial isospin currents along the magnetic field which
correspond to chiral magnetic and chiral separation effects. We show that these
currents are sensitive to the finite mass of the constituents, but the
conductivities follow a simple scaling with the corresponding charge densities
as one would expect for polarization effects. It is argued that this relation
can capture the dependence of chiral effects on other infrared parameters.
Finally, we briefly comment on the realization of the 't Hooft matching
condition in pionic media at finite densities.
