Apple Logic Pro /LogicExpress Discussion

OK, let me try restating the problem.  I created an input audio object. I inserted Guitar 
Amp Pro, a compressor and an enveloper. I love the sound, I have to play thru the plugins 
because it affects the way I play. Now I want to record that sound. If I set up the same 
plugins on an audio track, then go into record I get a little latency which affects my playing 
adversely. This all has to be done live, Its no help to freeze the track later. I have a work 
around for now - I send input object with its plugins out of output 8 on my Metric Halo 
2882 interface, then physically patch analog ouput 8 to an analog input on the interface 
and record thru that input. I just thought that there ought to be a way to do this virtually, 
within the program without resorting cabling.
