Guitar part not going through.

Hello all.  I just purchased the Steam version of Music Creator 6 Touch today due to a great sale they had this morning ($16).  As a GarageBand user, I like the similar layout and it seems pretty easy to use.  My problem is that I cannot get the program to "hear" my guitar playing.  They don't seem to be talking.
 
The setup I've got going is the guitar plugged into a DigiTech processor with an audio cable connecting from it's headphone "out" jack to the headphone "in" jack on my Windows 7 PC desktop.  Essentially, it's the same setup I've been using successfully for years with GarageBand and my MacBook.
 
I've read through the setup directions and the problem is that Music Creator doesn't give me any options under any of the tracks to select anything other than "None" as an input.  I think I'm supposed to see "Right", "Left" and some other things under there from what I've read.  

 
So, Music Creator doesn't seem to be hearing the guitar input although it appears to be setup in Windows 7 just fine as a microphone.  And when I chose the option to listen to the microphone under it's properties, I can hear the guitar just fine through my computer's speakers.  (The green bars on the right show show the live audio being played by the guitar)

 
So, if anybody has any suggestions, I sure would appreciate it.  I feel like I might be missing something fairly simple that a more experienced user could easily detect.
 
Thanks!
 
Also, I'm not sure if the screenshots went through correctly so here's the links.
 

 

 
 

Hi Greg,
 
I do have microphone selected and it's my only option.  Should be correct too as it's worded exactly the same as the working live microphone in Windows 7 Control Panel> Hardware and Sound> Sound> Recording - "Realtek High Definition Audio".
Any other ideas?

Have you run the wave profiler? It should list the devices (input and output) is sees and selecting the one the guitar is connected to should give you sound.
 
BTW:  $16 is a super price!!!!   wow! 
 
Once you get this working, you will like it.
 
Wait a minute..... !  Isn't GARAGE BAND an apple product?   Are you trying to run this on an apple computer? that might be the problem if that's the case. I have always understood Cakewalk software to be PC based windows programs...... not Mac.

There's the likely problem.....   having the USB mic plugged in.
 
I'm pretty sure MC6 can only deal with one sound card at a time. It sees the USB mic as a sound card (which it is) and you're trying to also use the factory sound card at the same time. 
 
This is the reason most of us do not use the factory card, but choose instead to use a dedicated USB audio interface. That way, there is only one card and one timing signal to worry with. We use the interface for input and output and do not use the factory card for anything with recording.
 
Apparently, MC6 is using the soundcard in the USB mic to process the signals. That's OK... kind of.  A problem might occur during play back because I doubt that you are using the USB mic sound card for playback.....likely you play back on the factory card. Since the timing is not going to be synced between the two, there may be playback sync issues. Then again, maybe not.
 
The solution is of course to purchase a dedicated sound card/interface to handle all input and output for MC6. You set it up one time, and from that point on it comes up running flawlessly. There is a huge difference between a USB mic (not the best solution by far) and a dedicated USB interface such as something made by Focusrite, M-Audio, Presonus, Roland, etc..... a huge difference.
 
However, if you're short on money, and what you have works, even though it's a PITA, use it while you save for a better interface.
