That's not something I normally need, but are you saying that you can change between monitoring the direct/wet signal from Cubase, in other words - is this:
a function that you don't need to leave Cubase to control? And, if this is the case, will you still be able to use the faders in Cubase to pan or adjust the level of the direct signal?

That's definitely my experience too, which is why I'm questioning if there's a good reason to make software monitoring the default, because software monitoring always means extra latency.
Maybe they have looked at a Symphony rig, @96k, with a minimum buffer setting (32), in an song not containing any softsynths, on the fastest Mac available, and concluded that software monitoring is usable for real work, forgetting that this is a setup that most likely less than 1% of the Logic user base is working on?
Life inside a testlab doesn't always reflect how things work in real life, and in this case (I've seen this example mentioned in the Symphony-ads) the test lab example - concluding that you can get 1.6 ms latency with software monitoring on - doesn't have much relevance for most Logic users.
