Topic: Fluid Beatgrid
With the approaching VDJ2026 update, is there any more new fluid beatgridding, or a way of importing the superior beatgrids from DJay Pro?

It's not in the 2026 release but is being worked on at present.
 
Didn't know what fluid beatgrid was til I looked it up.

Fluid Beatgrid uses advanced AI-driven analysis to automatically detect, predict, and adapt to tempo changes and rhythmic variations in real-time. It creates a dynamic grid that "flows" with the music, displaying a live-updating BPM readout and ensuring precise alignment for sync, loops, effects, and beatmatching—without manual grid editing.

Um.. yes please! That would be huge for me since a lot of my work is in older disco, funk and soul tracks!
 
"Fluid Beatgrid" is Algoriddim's marketing term for a beatgridding implementation improvement that most likely uses AI.
It's not only about variable BPM tracks (which everybody realizes as it's the easiest consistent failure to recognize in most analyzers), it's about improving of beatgridding of all tracks period (including the pesky consistent BPM ones that the current analyze gets wrong, like In Da Club and Freaky Friday).

A status update was already given recently on it - so we know it will come (be patient).

i think that can be imported through the cdj thing... if i'm not mistaken..
 
Don't suppose it's going to be a Christmas surprise?

How do you do this?
 
OneLibrary Export on the DJay Pro side + CDJ Export auto import on the VirtualDJ side.

Rekordbox upgraded analysis is probably available like that too (it's also available more direcrly through tools like Lexicon/DJCU).
 
I'm seeing this implemented in a few different softwares. Anyone know Is there an open-source implementation or model of the underlying tech that is available to play around with?
