Hi
Are you sending the signal direct into a computer? How are you amplifying 
the 
signal?

I don't know much about turntable interface but you might consider using a 
preamp that sends the signal output at (-10db). Audio Buddy by Midiman is 
a 2 
channel preamp that does this.
Some compressors have a switch that will allow a choice between (-10) and 
(+4) output. Choose (-10) if you are going direct into computer.
A small eq box after the preamp, maybe a 3 channel strip (lo, mid, hi), 
would 
help also to adjust the hi end (8k to 20k).

fwiw
