Without knowing exactly what you meant by "midi note are lost on pads and my sound of cymbals mute" I presumed your USB connection is reset after a few minutes (every time after a few minute? from time to time? rarely? after how many minutes?) making all MIDI communication to stop and the possible cause might be a powerful electrical device nearby switching on/off. So I gave you the link to possibly the same issue discussed where I suggested that a surge protector might help.

OK i try to install my MD as far as possible of my PC , because i have installed my MD scratch behind the screen perhaps a bad idea ?

Do you think it will be better if i connect my MD with midi cable and connect the USB directly on power with an adaptator 220v/USB ?

I doubt it is the cause but it cannot be excluded.

It will work.

So what do you mean by "powerful electrical device nearby switching on/off" ?

[dmitri]

E.g. a fridge switching on and off periodically.

OK so what is the solution ?

It seems you're not reading what I write. See text in bold:
