Computer as EQ?

I have a 4 input/ 4 output audio interface for my computer.
does anyone know of a program that can make my computer act as a graphic or parametric equalizer. basically i want to run the master outputs of my mixer into the audio interface, have my eq on the computer, and run the output of the audio interface into the speakers

thanks

(ps, i'm using windows)

The latency (delay from input to output) would likely be problematic.
 
In my experience you will always have unacceptable delay (1/4+ sec), but you can always test it out by setting windows to 'listen' to the input, and seeing how much delay you get with no processing.
 
So, if the OP were to use this in a recording situation instead of a live situation, where latency wouldn't cause a problem, are there any programs that allows you to do that?
 
You can do it, though generally it would be for effects rather than as the master EQ.

Protools...
