I'm confused. Are you wanting to record your EQ and Dynamics? If yes, then my question is why? If you record your tracks wet, you're stuck with them that way forever. If you later decide you don't like the gate on the kick for instance, or if you feel like doing some crazy compression on a guitar or vocal, you're stuck. What you recorded is what you have. Period. You need to record dry tracks, and perform any processing at mixdown.
Just a bit of advice from one with 30+ years as a recording/broadcast/live sound engineer...
