Not nearly enough information but I'll take a stab at it.
If your amp can output audio via USB, it must be selected as an input device in DP.

I thought so too, but I only see the inputs of Mic1 and Mic2, no usb

F that’s the case, then the amp is the issue—your Mac can’t see it.
Does it output audio via usb? Does it require drivers so your Mac can see it? Is there a switch or setting you must engage? Time to consult the manual or ask support. Is there a user group?

What Mike said.
Just to say it in another way:
Does Audio MIDI Setup (utilities app) see your amp ?
If it does, then DP should see it.
If it does not, DP can't track from it.

So, my iMac can see my Amp ( Boss Katana ). With Garage Band I have no problem to recording. Audio/MIDI setup can see Katana. But, I have no possibility to find in the input of DP. That's all

Are you saying it doesn't show up in DP Setup -> Configure Audio -> Configure Hardware? You can't command-click it to add it as an additional audio device?

You haven't told us where it "doesn't show up"

It needs to be seen there. If not... well it should.
Since GB can see it, we know it supports 44.1kHz. If you are using a different sample rate, try that. If you want to use a different sample rate and it won't let you, that's a limitation of the amp.
