Bypassing the mixer preamps

Hi, I know this has been discussed here before so I ask for your indulgence. I'm trying to a Mackie 12 channel mixer as a patchbay- plugging my Avalon m5, API, Focusrite, Neve Portico and maybe an old Joemeek down to two inputs into my OO2.
I've read about someone, maybe Kurt bypassing the preamps in his Mackie when heading ito his DAW,
Am I on the wrong track?
