When Digital Output is used, Valve force is working as insert only. This is because only then the signal is routed back to digital domain; in case of "Final" placement, the tube signal is put directly to analog outputs.

Yes this is an unfortunate aspect of the Valve Force slap-on design I have confirmed while recording a sequence playback to SD card (=resampling with L/R selected as the Source BUS). What you hear in headphones or L/R outputs is not what you get in the recording. Valve Force is bypassed on record.
BUT, there is a workaround. You can record Valve Force to SD card resampling with L/R selected as the Source BUS IF you change Valve Force Placement from Final to Insert (Use 3/4 BUS). You can keep IFX and MFX ordering as-is. The unavoidable difference will be that Valve Force is placed before MFX, not after.
From Insert Effect menu, Routing 1-8/9-16 tabs, modify all IFX/Indiv.Out BUS Select with L/R to 3/4. In Insert FX tab, modify all BUS Sel with L/R to 3/4. From Master Effect menu, Valve Force tab, set Valve Force Placement to Insert (Use 3/4 BUS), Pan C064, Bus Sel L/R, and Send 1 and Send 2 to whatever numeric values you used in the IFX now routed to 3/4.
With these settings, what you hear in headphones or L/R outputs WILL be what you get in the SD card recording (and in the S/P DIF output also). As confirmation during resampling recording, you can you turn Valve Force on and off, and you will see the recording levels jump up and down accordingly.
