USB is USB so you should be able to swap with a printer cable without
issues. Of course there are different qualities of cables and some have
more problems than others. You might also have a ground loop. Are both
the mixer and the computer powered from the same circuit? Never heard of
noise coming through the USB cable before as it is all digital, so it
sounds like a grounding or power supply problem.

I am on a quest to eliminate a wicked noise when using my mixer via USB port on
either of my Apple computers, a MacBook Pro mid 2012 or an iMac, 2014. I’ve
narrowed it down and the noise is coming from the USB connector. It’s the cable
between the mixer and the computer and one end is USB while the other is square
like a printer cable and goes into the mixer. I’m curious to see if a standard
printer cable will work but if not, and I don’t blow up everything trying, are
there shields, like Ferrite beads, you can attach to cables to prevent this
situation?
Anyone else have this issue?
