bpm fluctuation

Ive got a track Miguel cambell - beams of light, really doing my head in with the Bpm fluctuating during the track, anyone got any tips to combat this, starts at 121 then jumps to 122 just as im about to drop another track so sends everything way out, it does this about 6 times during the track, checked the track in rekordbox and everything seems fine, its just when I burn to disk I have the problem, only burning to disk as the club I am in has cdj1000mk3's even checked it on my cdj2000's and it jumps in the same spot????

Can you upload the track somewhere?  I am at work, but I have my laptop with me today so I could test it in Rekordbox and also edit it in Ableton Live, if necessary.

 

Whenever I encounter a track with unstable tempo, I usually edit the track in Ableton Live and render a new file.  Ableton Live has the warping function which can fix tempo drift.

Alright, so I have loaded the track into Rekordbox and Ableton Live.  The track has a very stable tempo of 120.49 BPM on both programs.

So, what you are saying is that when you export this track to a USB stick and play it on the CDJ-2000, the tempo changes mid-track?

I use Roxio Toast.  I would think iTunes is not a very good burning program for a professional user like a DJ.

im a little lost with this one, if anyone can add any more idea's within rekordbox the track seems fine but only when burn to disc either in itunes or nero the track jumps backwards and forwards 1 bpm about 4 times within the track, really want to play it live as well but cant be bothered with it messing up during a transition
