Can this be done with the Live 2?

I can route the audio of my mixer out into the Live 2 while it runs some sort of EQ program and while I fiddle with all my knobs on the mixer it will show me all my different EQ curves & spikes yeah?

I ask because I do my mixing & recording on hardware and one thing I really suck at is EQing and "hearing" the different frequencies to know what's wrong and what to change, so I was beginning to think I need some sort of external/rackmount/hardware EQ to visually monitor what's going on, but realized I have a Live 2 with several different EQ plugins I can probably install that would suffice if I can just monitor incoming audio real time and use the Live 2 for visual feedback.
