do you have aux sends? i assume you must do as you're already using outboard fx - in which case simply return the fx outputs to a standard mixer channel and bring them up alongside your mix.
if you have neither sends nor returns then i'm afraid it's rather more complicated - you'll need to insert the fx into each relevant channel separately (i.e. between the sound source and the desk) and then record each track separately to your hard disk.
sounds like you might need to get another mixing desk if you're serious about recording though - doesn't mean the desk need be expensive, but aux sends at least are a must...

you can use the spare channels as returns and that should solve your problem. my desk doesn't have aux returns either so i use a little sub-mixer (spirit notepad) to run my fx returns through so they only take up one stereo pair on my main desk.
now if your fx returns are coming out of one of the channels there is no reason why you shouldn't be able to record them along with the rest of your mix.
one question though, if you haven't set it up like this already, how have you been monitoring the fx up till now?
