(and slippery fingers!)
But, if you are not using loads of hardware inserts then it is probably ok.
I avoid using them as much as possible, but in Pro Tools it isn't possible to have the mono MBP mic input and the stereo output addressed separately so you have to create an aggregate device.
Give it a go and see how it works for you.

For the first time, I started building the project from scratch with the Chord Track and it's a huge change in workflow and I'm very happy.
@octatonic - I have got a Ventris Reverb connected to the RME's analogue I/O. That's it.
Aggregating the MODX with the RME will help me avoid the USB ground noise that appears when using the MODX's analogue outputs and also using the MODX by USB or MIDI. I could use one of those transformer isolating widgets on the analogue outouts, but that seems inelegant and requires the use of adapters and/or other kludges.
Personally I'd figure out the ground issue first.

You still need to have a default audio output in Pro Tools.
If you don't create an aggregate then it has to be either the mic input (and no output) or the stereo out (and no input) and then can add the other one into the Aux IO.
I usually have the mic input on Aux IO and the stereo output as the default output in playback engine.
If Avid allowed separate input and output assignments none of this would be necessary, but there you go.
