Soundeasy, yes. Mini dsp or sigma studio, no. @dcibel helped me set it up. I use Soundeasy to capture the impulse files and then convert them to FRD's using VituixCAD. VituixCAD has an option to export any driver icon output as a wav file. So, I can effectively export my passive crossover for each driver icon by saving each passive crossover section as an individual wav file (cool function).
Then I load these individual driver icon wav files into the Equalizer APO sofware package, which, in turn, convolutes theses individual wav files and sends them to my usb connected 7.1 channel external sound card. I'm using a Soundblaster X3 that I picked up at Besy Buy. The Soundblaster X3 then creates analog outputs for each passive crossover driver icon and sends the signal to my power amplifiers, which, in turn, send the crossover output to the indvidual drivers. Then I can listen to my passive crossover without buying parts. It is a really cool setup and I had it working for a short while. Then I started getting problems with the Equalzier APO software freezing up (or locking up). Had to use windows taskmgr to shut it down and try again. I was using Equalizer APO version 1.3 and I just noticed that they are now up to Equalizer APO version 1.4. Maybe the new version will be more stable on my computer, but I have not tried it yet.

LSPcad has a similar function.
Decided to build a pair of "curvy" bases instead of a simple straight post.
