the ONLY time i got it to show there was when i actually disabled the embedded sound on the macbook, so i could hear it, but could choose the input and see a level, but what the hell is the point of that. And so, yeah it works in garageband so i kno the cable works in some sense, but when it add it to the protools aggregate, it just wont show in pt. so thats why no regular cable and interface, already use that. Just be mixing and adding things if i like, whatever. It just seems like it should work so simple, and i would really love to sit on the damn couch and add guitar to a song without going down to desk and blah blah you kno.

No i kno, im sorry to sound annoyed, this is obviously a kindof silly request. I would even find solace in knowing this will never work, so i can stop trying. This seems like it should be so easy, but its driving me crazy. When i change the settings in the Audio Midi setup program, protools will quit out and reopen twice. Im using OSX, and Ive read that I should be creating a custom aggregate device with the cable checked off as the input device, but it never appears in protools as a selectable input, and the built in mics are always there but grayed out. This works in garageband no problem, go figure, but thats not how i want this to work.

If you are unaware of this device, it is by UBI and its called the realtone USB cable. Im trying to, occasionally when lazy, record guitar or bass with protools 10, into my macbook pro, using the USB interface cable that comes with the PS3 game Rocksmith. Ive been searching and can find nothing about this in the forums, and on google i get basic instructions on how this should work but nothing relating to when it doesnt, so i apologize in advance in this has been answered somewhere.
