To get the facts right: It's switching BPM within one song? Or is it just that some songs have half the tempo? Because then you can easily double the tempo in the grid setting of each song.

^ it's both actually, they are half the tempo.. which is good that i figured out, since mixing with that logic went pretty good... but sometimes it does switch the bpm to that half a beat while playing. also, sometimes it goes up and down from out of nowhere. however that is not extreme, just a few numbers.

how do you do that grid part btw?

Could also be an issue of the CDJ 350 cuz I never experienced that with the 2000 Nexus. Not even with Trap / Dubstep / DNB.

Best method to adjust the grid is switching to singe player view (top right next to the volume setting) and then click on "GRID" next to the play button. There you'll find all the tools you need :)
