XDJ-RX, Beats drifting despite matching BPM

So I recently bought myself an XDJ-RX, and I have fairly good experience with DJing. One thing I have found is when I beatmatch by ear, it sounds great, and when I put the second track in, after about 20 seconds the tracks drift apart and the beatmatch is lost, making it sound terrible. I don't want to have to adjust my tracks every 20 seconds, once the beats have been matched, they should stay matched, right? I have analysed the tracks in "Normal" mode, opposed to "Dynamic" and I have adjusted the grids on my tracks so that they are perfect, yet the problem still persists. I'm guessing this is a firmware issue?

 

I have seen a lot of people also making comments on the same topic and how it is a problem for them, so I know it is not just me!

only possibility is that your beatmatching is slightly out? Over a few seconds you won't notice it but after 20..

Mate, that is djing.

Keeping two tracks in time is the skill of DJing.

If you want your tracks to stay together automatically use sync, or buy a laptop and use that.
