1202fx how do I monitor vocals with effects and tape input while recording dry vocal?

Forums

I have a little mixer called the Behringer Xenyx 1202 FX
 
What I would like to do is monitor my vocals with the effects from the mixer along with the output from my computer's sound card through the headphone Jack on the mixer.
But when recording, only record the dry vocals back into my computer. I have tried many things but nothing is really working.

I Just Got A 1/4" Tape Deck. Now What?

This may sound totally noob/stupid, but... I just got an old Sony TC-252 1/4" Reel To Reel. And I have no idea what to do with it. I mean... I've had -many- tape machines over the years... just not in the past 20 or so. I figured, if nothing else I could make little echo loops with it like when I was 16 or so... or make some nutty distortion with it.

Tape on SM57 on snare to reduce hi-hat bleed?

I came across this idea while attending a little workshop put on by some of the heavies here in town. One engineer (the youngest, but most talented) recommended this technique during one "class".

As I recall, he put the tape on opposite side of the 57 from the hihat, along the grill side. Anyone ever heard of this?
