USB Audio, Axe Fx II Playback, and EQ

Are there currently any means of applying EQ (within the Axe Fx II) to the USB audio when using the Axe Fx II as the playback device?
 
Not while using analog input 1. When input is set to analog or SPDIF/AES, the USB output is mixed in just before the D/A converter. If you set Main Input Select to USB, the USB output will go through the grid and global EQ's (like when reamping), but input 1 is muted. You might be able to set input to USB and use input 2 to feed your guitar into the grid via the FX Loop block while the USB input is fed through the input block to a separate row containing an EQ block.

Easier to just use an EQ plugin on the USB return feed in your DAW.

Thanks for the info, didn't realize the signal routing was as you stated, good to know.
