Not sure why you don't see any waveform. The only thing I can think of is
that the analog signal inside your turntable isn't getting through to the
the USB port (hence no waveform even though GB recognizes the USB
connection). BTW, the monitor output should be set to built-in audio, NOT
USB audio codec. There's no point in sending the audio signal back into the
turntable, unless is has a built-in speaker of course.

Hmmm.
