Did you ran your tracks on rekordbox? And if yes u might have to adjust the beat grid. You can do it on your laptop or on your cdj nexus. Once you do that you should be on the money. I had that problem one time so I had to adjust the beat gird threw rekordbox on my laptop,because am using the xdj aero. Hope that helped good luck

Yes, I did those steps.

The problem I have is while mixing...

Say I have my deck 1 as my master sync playing, and deck 2 cue ready to mix. I set deck 2 beat match, cue and click SYNC on it. when I release the Cue and play button on that deck (#2) the track does not sync accurate and stops one second and keeps playing.

If I have the SYNC feature off on both decks this problem will go away!!!

whats the steps you do to use the sync?

Yes, on both. the question is... should the SYNC feature be accuarte as TRAKTOR (Example) where you set your 2 decks, click sync and the mix is perfect?

because Im measuring the NEXUS SYNC feature with something similar like traktor or serato and its just not that accurate!

opinion!

Hmmm I see what you saying! Well I think and this is my opinion,that the new nexus and traktor are the same when it comes to sync accurate. I think the key is really adjusting your beat grid really good,so you can get that tight sync you want. I use traktor for 2 year and I never use sync feature,one day I used it just to see what it's all about and my sync was off. So what I had to do is adjust the beat gird in traktor pro because is was not analyze good on traktor. But once I did that it work good. Even with the xdj aero I use the sync button and it was not accurate,so I had to adjust the beat gird on that track. When I went to try it again it was a tight sync. So is traktor,serato etc has the same sync as the cdj nexus? Yes in my opinion. Just need to really adjust the beat grid really good. Hope it works out out for you

How about if you also use your hears instead of only sync?? To use only sync with no bend  , the grids must be  adjusted with metromome to be as accurate as possible! But Hears are your best friend... Hears = Auto Sync ;)

One problem is that Rekordbox doesn't allow enough of a zoom-in on the waveform to get it accurate enough. This needs to be improved in my opinion.
