Are there any tools to calibrate a display without a colour profile?

Question

In the case where you have a monitor which you use with multiple inputs and you want to ensure that from any input signal the display will be as close to correct as possible without applying a profile.I was wondering if there's a tool where a calibration tool can be used to allow you to move the monitor to a more correct calibration before working on making a profile?My monitor has options for custom Gain, Offset, Hue and Saturation built in in addition to brightness and contrast. (Dell UP2718Q) So I'm sure there's a lot that can be done beforehand.Are there specific colourimeters available for this or separate software?

I haven&rsquo;t been through the process recently, but I believe the i1 Display Pro I have includes optional workflow steps which ask you what controls are available on your display, and gives you a chance to make those kinds of coarse adjustments before building the LUT. For some monitors it can also automate that process via DDC/CI, but I think that&rsquo;s an extreme minority.
