Hi Guys,
Ok so I have read the various forums posts on this and thought I had it solved, most tracks seem ok but on about 5-10% of all my tracks I have the following issue:
1. I set the CUE point (not Hot CUE) at the start of the beat and then commit this to memory by pressing the memory button on the left - as you can see in my pic the bottom track has the standard cue point in its memory - it is the first beat.
2. For this track and a number of others when I load it into the CDJ at a club (or on my XDJ-R1 at home) - the cue point goes back to the point that Rekordbox has decided is the cue point which is BEFORE the beat - as you can see on the track (bottom) below.
3. In Rekordbox I have to press the memory button to have it cue at the beat. This doesn't work on CDJ or R1 as only the HOT CUEs can be recalled, so I have to go ahead and cue the song myself manually which is a pain if I am time constrained trying to do short mixes
4. I have also attached my settings so you can see what I have selected, I chose these setting based on the forum queries I can find and the manual.
WHAT AM I MISSING? Some songs it remember the memery selection and automatically goes there, easy, some songs it doesn't, wtf?
All help appreciated?
As a final note, I have it set so that my hot cues automatically load. However, I have noticed that this works on some CDJs whilst not on others, another mystery I would love to solve......

BTW I am having trouble above with the following: CDJ 2000s, CDJ 2000 Nexus and XDJ-R1, so pretty much all. I assume if Rekordbox engineers haven't forseen this then I have to make the 'failed' standard Cue points at Hot CUE A, although I prefer not to mix and match....
Question for you ... as the R1 and CDJs use a different database, which database type do you have set in your rekordbox device preferences?
I always export for CDJ when going to a club to play, that much I do know, its not just an export issues but also something which sit IN Rekordbox.
About 20-25%% of my DNB tracks, when analayzed, have a standard cue point which begins about 1 bar before the downbeat.....this is despite the fact that there is no sound at all before the first beat....it is just an anomoly on about 1/5 of my entire collection, no matter what I do I cannot correct that.
Therefore, when I take my USB sets to a club the CDJ will of course just emulate this fact in each of these tunes and I of course have to re-set the cue point before playing, please see an example attached where I have just set up a hot cue instead of where I want a normal cue to be, I know I could also use the memory button which I have also done BUT this is not what I am looking for. For many other tracks the standard cue sits ont he beat and I just press CUE as soon as the track loads up in a club.......
I would be a bit more understanding if there was some type of audible noise prior to the beat but as you can see int he attached there is nothing AND I try very hard to hear something through my headphones...nothing...so why is Rekordbox religiously deciding to start 1 beat before? I am aware that some mastering engineers start a track a beat earlier when mixing down is this the 'start' that Rekordbox is picking up?
How to fix this?
{Seems like I can only customise Hot Cues and the Memory Cue, but not the standard CUE (that is conveniently auto-loaded on a CDJ) if it is wrong and not on the downbeat}
my analyze settings are below...
What you need to do is properly grid your tracks first:
While you're doing that, you can set the primary cue point to the correct location.
