Maybe I was dreaming. I had an idea that if my songs all sounded like, say AC/DC, I could profile some of their songs and it then benefit from all the superior expertise and equipment that went into their sound. 
 
OK, I'll come back earth and try the Pro Q.

Don't give up on the idea of profiling. It's good to compare your mixes to the ones you admire most, and seeing it laid out clearly in a graph can pinpoint where the weaknesses are in your own approach, or even identify weaknesses in your monitoring.
 
There's nothing wrong with referencing other people's mixes, or using visual aids to do it. It's just automated EQ-matching that's a false promise.

Logic has one, which I sometimes use as a quick reference - I don't think I've ever applied it though. But it does a fair job at providing a quick glance at which areas of the spectrum need more work.

I'd hate not to have access to it but I'm not sure I'd invest money into such a plug-in if it wasn't bundled with my DAW.

When I purchased my Powercore set up over 10 / 12 years ago I should think, an Eq matching piece of software came with it - it was called Assimilator.
I have never even loaded it up and tried it, because as Dave says, it doesn't work!!

The first I remember seeing was Steinberg's Free Filter, in early 2001-02.


 
Like 99% of Steinberg's plug-ins, it was discontinued no too long after.

Kind of like your girlfriend or wife attempting to judge you or shape you based on her understandings of her previous boyfriend's profiles. 
 
Sounds nice in theory, but the results are not satisfactory.
