Using Ableton as an ''effect-machine''

I was wondering, if i could, sort of link up ableton to my mixer and turntables, and sort of use ableton as an effect machine, using my keyboard?
Gear:

Behringer VMX300 (crappy, i know)
2x Gemini TT-02

Thanks in advance..

do you have a send on your mixer?
send the audio into a track in ableton,
turn tracks monitor to "on",
output back into your mixer

the hard part is syncing the tempo (if your using tempo based effects)

Modulating effects on a live input is what I came up with dummy clips for in the first place!
