Thanks for the replies.
Today I ran a USB cable from my 120 to my MacBook Pro. I selected the USB as input. It read it as a Deviate 120 and showed an signal. I did not run any software to record, nor was I able to hear anything. But again, I saw the input meters moving with the music.
I need a special USB cable to get it to work with my external DAC. So I ordered that today. Will see if hooking up the USB from my 120 to an external DAC works when I get the right cable (a B male to B male USB... hard to find) and I'll report back. But so far I am seeing a signal coming out of the 120.
Would be great if this works as with the 120, if you are using 3 of the RCA inputs, like I am (L/R stereo in from my phono pre, and 1 S/PDIF from my Sonos) you are only left with one remaining RCA out. So that pretty much makes getting stereo analog out with the preamp board impossible.
