The USB bus doesn't give you a guarantee about the timing, so it might
be too slow to properly modulate a clean carrier signal. There is the
isochronous USB mode which sounds suitable for this kind of application,
though it doesn't handle USB packet loss at all.
Maybe add a small microcontroller to act as a receive buffer and to modulate
a clean carrier signal? Then you are in control what is happening
with the signal...
Cheers,
Thomas
