The 11r is not being recognised by the mac. Tried to use it as an interface in garageband and it shows on the menu but would not record. Also, a message appears re midi clock. Im starting to suspect that I have one of those old 11r that had some sampling problems and its too late to replace it with a new one.

In the meantime I bought an ilok and installed pro tools 10 and so far it works but I still cannot use the rack (as an interface) with another DAW. Thanks for your reply man.
