USB output to laptop not working(?)

[Axel]

I have had my Devialet 200 for a few years - love it - and am finally starting to play with the USB output to rip LPs. 
I have followed the (now very old) instructions to set the MIDI interface first, then open audacity. I set the Devialet (running firmware 10.1) to input from my turntable and it plays fine. But there is no signal being recorded in Audacity - just silent. In the Devialet configurator it labels the USB as an "input" - is this the problem? That my Devialet is too old to feature the bi-directional USB, i.e. it is only a source? 
I have seen an old thread (2015) in this forum with very similar issues, turned out to be a faulty circuit board in the Devialet. I hope it isn't that...
I also cannot find the Devialet document about the bi-directional USB - has disappeared from their web site. Anyone have a copy, that might help?

thanks

Hi Dave and welcome to DC.
I assume that you’ve got the USB input enabled in the Configurator? I remember, a few years ago when I had a 200, I successfully ripped a couple of my mates albums using the method you describe, but using Adobe Audition instead of Audacity, so I think your USB will be bi-directional.  Are your USB drivers up to date? I don’t remember having to set up the MIDI interface and I’m not sure that this would have any effect on the USB side of things.
