Yes, I have been using Mercurial (hg) with Logic Pro for a while now and with great results. Also coming from a software development background I find the main benefit to be the comments for each changeset and the ability to go back and branch from an earlier version to try out alternate production or composition techniques.
As mentioned you will likely pay ...

There are few dedicated options available in Cubase for that purpose (there might be more).
1. The Random Quantize setting
This setting affects the result of the quantizing. It allows you to set a “distance” in ticks (120ths of sixteenth notes). Events will be quantized to random positions within the specified “distance” from the quantize grid, thus ...

Latency is due to the audio driver for the audio card. Cubase uses ASIO-drivers (an invention by Steinberg themselves) which mean they are optimized for the sound card if the manufacturer of the sound card makes ASIO-drivers available.
For sound cards that doesn't support ASIO there are workarounds such as DirectX ASIO (built-in in Cubase IIRC) and Asio4All ...

Eugene's answer above is excellent, and outlines some key features in Cubase that you should find useful in this task.
I'd just like to add that you can adjust the velocity of the MIDI events also - this effectively changes the volume, but it is more akin to the force with which the note is struck (ie pressing a piano key softly would equate to low ...

I'm not a FL Studio user, but I'd be surprised to find that there are no active forums full of FL Studio users.
That said, the other DAWs you suggest break down as follows:
ProTools is said to be great at audio and weak at MIDI. It seems to
be the go-to choice for full-serivce professional studios. As far as
I know, you can't run VSTs natively in ...

Both approaches will work. In fact you can easily create music inside Cubase without importing or recording any sound. I.e. you can open a midi editor in Cubase and manually insert notes, modify their length/volume/pitch, and then route this midi track into an "instrument", that generates sound from midi. For example, Steinberg Synth HALion, which comes with ...

There does seem to be an inherent problem related to mixing both a Midi controlled software synth and normal Audio through a USB device into Cubase to be recorded etc. From what I have experienced and gathered from stuff on the web, its a case of hitting a device one way system, you can't have it going both ways, so routing one will always take a longer path ...

the biggest portion of latency is almost always in the software synthesizer.
the lame ones (who don't use the minimum latency that the sound card says it can handle) have to be configured for the number of millisecs of audio they will buffer.
Or, if they're REALLY lame, you won't be able to change that buffer size and will have to just suffer with their ...

What you are looking for is often called a Goniometer or Correlation meter. There are plenty of VST plugins that will display a goniometer view for stereo correlation analysis. Just use your favorite search engine, now that you know the proper terms.
This looks like what you are looking for. I don't have any experience with it myself, however.

Regarding what you will be using your program for, FL Studio seems to be best suited.
FL Studio has tons of resources via their online forum -- http://forum.image-line.com/
Scott, Nucleon, and others are actually surprisingly very helpful and answer quickly.
Also to mention, you may be intersted in checking out my site http://www.Beatstruggles.com -- ...

FL-Studio has become one of the BEST DAWS available now. It had humble beginnings, but has flourished in advancements over the years. On version 10 now, Image Line Software has created a powerful DAW for those that want to utilize both loops, synthesizers (VSTs), AND Live Recording. (and No, I do not work for Image Line or affiliated in any way.. - Though I ...
