Not that I want to jump into this one, but I was
thinking about what your going for. I usually do
something along the lines of using Sound Forge to do
what you want. If you have a sound card that supports
it(my crappy EMU0404 does it ok). Bacially you frist
setup sound forge, and open a new blank session, and
then select to record. Make sure that you have a line
out to your mixing desk, and then take the out from
the mixing desk back into your sound card. This should
make it kind of like a line loop. what goes out comes
back in. Now if you have other instruments playing in
your track then you wont beable to do it. you would
get the whole track obviously. 

The next way I thought about doing it involves a VST
plug in that I found on KVR(www.kvraudio.com). I can't
remember how I searched for it, but you should be able
to look it up by the actual name. It's called "tape
it".  Really useful little plug in. Basically it
behaves like a bouncer for individual tracks as well
as you have the ablity to place it anywhere in the
effects chain and it will record whatever you have
playing from that point. An example whould be in your
case placing one tapeit before a delay sound, and then
one after. you would end up with two files. One clean
and one with efx. 

Finally, there is a way to do excatly as the first
suggestion with out a mixer if you have a mac. The
program is called Audio Hijack if I remember. ya
that's it... I just looked it up.

It's just a Computer sound recorder. it records
anything that is playing on your computer on the fly.
pretty dope, but I just use the Tape it thing... saves
mad space, and time, and allows you to create a couple
versions of the same sound really quickly once you get
used to it.. 

hope this helps ya or anybody else that runs into this
kind of problem.

note: these also work when you start running out of
memory in a project and your computer starts to chug a
little, just start bouncing some of the pieces out to
.wav files, and then put them back into the
sequencer...
