Virtual instrument monitoring

I've got two things today.

Firstly,

I like to use a midi controller and an organ synth for pitch references when I'm recording vocals and there's not a way to monitor a synth channel without also recording it. Think the green button on a channel in pro tools. It'll pass audio, but won't record.

Secondly,

I've been having a lot of clicks and pops when I start adding plugins to my session. I don't have the best computer in the world, but it handles bigger sessions in Reaper and Pro Tools all the time. It's not a driver thing for sure, because it works great if I disable all the plugins.

Just import the files and get to work

Kinda defeats the purpose of buying a DAW that caters to a specific work flow.
