DJM 700 - Losing Midi Signal?

I run SSL and Mix Emergency for Video.  I have run it pretty flawless for a few years.  Recently, I had a few USB drop outs.  At the same time, I started having issues with midi, the signal would drop, or I would have to restart midi by plugging and unplugging.  I assumed it was my USB port.  So I switched them up, bought a powered USB hub, bought new USB to midi cable bought all new cables.  I haven't had the USB drop outs but I am still having issues with the midi signal dropping.  Is it possible that I am having an issue with MIDI on the DJM-700?  Is there a way to test or fix?  I love this mixer and don't really want to buy a new one (or a higher priced replacement).

@Jeremy > It could be any number of things, but my first recommendation is to ensure you are NOT using a USB hub to connect the DJM > MIDI-to-USB adapter > computer.

Next, fire up a MIDI monitoring program (such as MIDI-OX on PC or MIDI Monitor on Mac), and check to see when / why the dropouts occur, if any.

Thanks.  When not using a USB to Midi adapter, my setup runs fine, no USB drop outs .  But I am also not running video.

 

Thanks for the list of programs I will check that out. 

 

This is what I have done so far:

 

Replaced cable to Serato Box

Replaced USB Hub

Replaced USB To Midi Cable

Swapped USB ports

 

I haven't tried using the new USB hub with the new USB to Midi Cable.

I will definitely try the MIDI monitor.
