I just had the same issue. The temporary fix I used worked for 2 years. I just stuck a small paper clip or safety pin in the corner of the port, and then plug the cable in. If those are too big just use something you can use to make the plug fit tight.

It finally stopped worked a couple of weeks ago, so I just bought a new USB port at an electronic store for $1.50 and soldered it on. I had to buy flux which was $3.00.

$5 and an hour of time after squeezing 2 extra years with paper clips. Priceless.

Just make sure you have a cold beer to solder with. Sticking drinks in a freezer wrapped in a wetpaper towel for 15 minutes is like a reverse microwave for beer.

How to fix loose usb on Axiom 49 keyboard

Wow...just loose or intermittent as well? Most of these jacks and connectors are directly soldered to the main circuit boards which could mean broken and/or intermittent connection. Check your warranty status but if expired...to resolder check for a local electronics repair shop to help as the disassembly and intricate work may be beyond many DIY fans.

Why are the Keys on my axiom pro 61 not sending MIDI messages?

Does your keyboard have a "MIDI OUT" port? If yes, then
there is a selection to choose between USB or MIDI OUT port.
For my M-AUDIO oxygen 61 (silver), I must press the [Advanced] button then Note F3 on the music keys manual to toggle the MIDI-OUT.
If set to INT, it will not sent via USB. If set to USB it will not send via MIDI-OUT port. To use MIDI-OUT port I need external 12V DC adapter.

How do I fix my Loose USB port on a midi keyboard?

If the port is still intact then it might just need to be resoldered. USB ports however to get strained and basically fall apart. Purchase another and solder it to the board. If you are not confident about doing this take it to your local Yamaha service centre.

How do i fix the usb port on oxygen 49 it seems to be loose . the keyboard powers on but is not being recognized.

The usual problem of these not being recognized is improper installaation or missing the driver software in the computer. The jacks sometimes appear loose but that can be normal. If you wiggle the jack and there is marginal connections, usually the computer will respond with the USB found and the disconnect tones. If the USB cable has been yanked, then solder could have been broken at the connector. Opening these units one has to be very careful to not damage the cables between the halves of the shell... also keeping track of the screws and type is a must.

I am trying to record from xenyx 2442fx to audacity. I am not sure how. I think it has something to do with usb, but do not know how to connect the mixer to the computer to get a good sound. Please help.

First, connect the USB audio interface which came with the Xenyx to a USB port on the PC. Then connect the TAPE OUT from the Xenyx to the IN of the USB audio interface. And connect the OUT of the USB audio interface to the TAPE IN of the Xenyx. You should now be able to record from any of the Xenyx channels. To listen back, engage the control room button which reads CD/TAPE. Contact me if you need any clarification.

I have an M-Audio Keystation 61es. Lately I've had random loss of power through the USB2.0 cable. The cable still powers my other M-Audio products, so the issue is the Keystation. It is possible...

I have the 88 key ones and powering via the USB is marginal... IF you have a place for an adapter, use one, as the computer USB is limited to 1/2 amp and OFTEN they limit at a little less and then the keystation is not reliable...
