Effects heard only on playback

I have Logic Express 9.1.8 with a Roland Cakewalk UA-25ex USB interface. When selecting effects from the library, i.e. electric guitar, crunch delay, crunch analog delay pedal I don't hear them as I play but only on playback after recording.

Is this normal and by design or should I be able to hear any of these effects? how would I set this up to hear all the time?

MacBook Pro, OS X Mountain Lion (10.8.2)

I found the answer to my problem. Under the core audio preferences software monitoring must be checked to hear the out put in real time. Hope this helps others as it drove me nuts for a while.
