My experience tells me that most of the USB turntables are great A/D converters attached to so much rubbish. The difference between going in via your audio interface and USB are night and day…in FAVOUR of the USB. Much less hum, nice clear, transparent sound, not muddied by less-than-stellar internal preamps to try to achieve line level.
My advice…use the software provided with the turntable which can “see” the input, record into that software and then transfer the files to Cubase for polish.
