i have no idea how to use usb in my daw so i can listen to the playback and record it as a track. There is no required software or drivers according to Audio Technica.
There is a phone preamp built into the record player.
Im usinf cubase 13 with a UR44C interface on windows 11
so how do i listen through that usb?
Hi,
that depends on your setup.
Do you have a dedicated audiointerface?
Computer specs, OS, Cubase version?
Without these infos it’s difficult to suggest anything…
On Windows the deck will work with windows audio, but Cubase can only work with ASIO so you will need to use an ASIO driver that can wrap a wdm driver.
The Steinberg Built in ASIO driver should work fine for this…you can open it’s control panel in studio setup menu and set inputs and outputs to the devices you want to use. Then make sure you have active buses for input and output in audio connections.
You’re talkin’ “record player”, right? As in an audio technica turntable record player, right?
âś“1. You have Cubase
? 2. You already have a usb audio interface that you use with Cubase, right? Or…you "don"t already have an audio interface that you use with Cubase…please clarify that critical missing piece of info 
✓3. You have an audio technica record player…turntable.
Once your answer to point2 is “yes, I have an interface” (ie buy one if you don’t already have one)…then…
…buy a little phono preamp that jacks up the signal/impedance of your record player…such as, say, a $100 box like the ART Precision Phono Pre.
Connect the 2 rca cables of your turntable to the Art box…connect a set of cables from the “outs” of the Art box to 2 line-ins of your standard usb audio interface …open up Cubase…
…pop the InaGadaDaVida album onto the record player :), plant the needle on the record, set your line-in levels on your usb interface (and comfortable output level of the Art box)…arm a couple of cubase mono tracks…or a stereo track, adjust levels…hit “record”…and bam…you’re in business.
Enjoy the drum solo
By the way…if you really truly own Cubase but no audio interface, there are a slight few out there in the market (I think) that can do double duty as a generalized audio interface …and…contain built in turntable phono signal handling…I think. I wouldn’t advise that all-in-one route myself…but it all depends on you…maybe indeed you only want to transfer your 10,000 albums collection to computer wav files…which a lot of us do…but Cubase is massive overkill for that. A 2trk editor being far cleaner to do transfers with.

They want to connect the usb out of the record deck … which means the dac and the phono stage are in the deck
I stand corrected.
The replies already cover a range from technical advice to Rock ´n Roll Hall of Fame Song suggestions over to British 80s dishes that are best served with funny cigarettes. I should have known better…
I have ur44c
Not sure why you would write all of this assuming i dont have an interface
Mea culpa.
@Googly_Smythe Nah, you know me - I absolutly love a bit of banter!!! Keep bringing it on, please 
Because you originally typed-
“I have no idea how to use usb in my daw”.
Can’t read your mind Some guys indeed have no clue what an interface is.
At any rate, I likely also perceived that you want to connect a record player (turntable)…and that’s probably incorrect too…
so, I’ll just head over to a different part of the universe now.
Hi,
the easiest way to do it is to use the Line Inputs of your UR44C. You’ll find them at the back of your audiointerface. Please make sure you have the preamp switch on your record player set to “Line”!
Set up your inputs in your DAW (Studio/Audio Connections/Inputs) and add these line inputs. Add a stereo track, pick your record player as input and record/hear whatever you want.
HTH
FYI @DosWasBest was just trying to help you and showed you alternatives in case you didn’t own an audiointerface. That was quite nice of him, don’t you think?
So i need rca from the record player to quarter inch to go into the extra line inputs on the back of the interface? So then i dont need the usb?
Whats the point of the usb then?
Isn’t your UR44C plugged into a USB port?
I have a Tascam cassette player, which I use for a similar purpose, presumably,. I plug it into the line inputs of my audio interface.
But a turntable does require a pre-amp to boost the signal up to line level. All hifi amps have one built in.
I wonder, through what do you listen to your records? Does it have line outs as @Reco29 suggests?
You can use the USB. I already told you how.
On the ur44c it only takes usb c.
The usb is plugged into the record player and my computer.
I was able to listen without the need of usb just by hooking up the rca to my speakers and setting the switch on the back to activate the preamp.
