Audio Hardware Setup! Now it's there, now it's not!

So Cubase 11 Pro and the UR44C still have this issue.

I’ve tried deleting the file under C:\Program Files (x86)\Steinberg\UR-C but now there are many folders and files so I didn’t know which one to delete:

So, I uninstalled the Tools for UR44C. I unplugged the unit, rebooted, started up Cubase with an empty project. It asked me to select a driver but there wasn’t a checkbox to always use this driver.

I unplugged it again and started Cubase and chose the Generic Low Latency ASIO Driver. Opened a project template. Still no Hardware rack. I chose the Yamaha Steinberg USB ASIO driver and got this message:

I chose to switch. Still no option to check a box to always use that driver.

I have another laptop with Cubase and tried the same things, but no Hardware Rack comes up.

Update on my UR44C. I’m partially at fault for what I thought was the hardware rack missing on the mix screen. I must’ve re-read the manual a million times but somehow my eyes always skipped over the one, standalone sentence saying the hardware rack for the URC has moved from the mixer to the Project Window under the Inspector Tab.

As of now though sometimes it appears and sometimes it doesn’t, in the same project if I click on different tracks. I’ll attach pics of one audio track having it and another doesn’t.

I’ve recently learned there are YouTube Cubase Livestreams on Tues & Fri at 1 pm on Steinberg’s channel. The host Greg Ondo does a fantastic job of answering questions like this from the live chat or e-mail.

been searching hours for this answer! Thanks for sharing :slight_smile:

No problem! Glad to pay things forward. I’m glad you responded as I forgot to post the last thing I learned…If the track doesn’t have the UR44C as a bus, the hardware rack won’t appear for that track. It makes sense, since if Cubase doesn’t have an interface defined, and people use several interfaces, it wouldn’t know which one to list and it would be good to list them all. Hope this helps!
