How do I fix this beatgrid issue?

Ok, so this is the second track I have found to do this. I'm running version 3.11.1, haven't got around to upgrading yet. I'm hoping this is fixable without the flexible beatgrid issue?

The track starts on the beat as you can see.

Then after the first few breaks it still drops on the beat,

On the main break the track is still on the grid,

Then it goes very quiet, and when it starts to build again it's going off beat,

And by the time it is going to drop again it is almost a beat ahead..

Any help would be appreciated as it's driving me mad when I think my mix is in time lol! Cheers, Kris

    If the tempo of the track stays stable after the change you could easy set another grid (second grid marker) on the drop here:

    Add a new hotcue and set it as a grid in the kontext menu.

    okidoki - here we are:

    fits well, when you just add another grid marker on the drop. the tempo seems to be stable on 141BPM (or 70.5 if you prefer that).

    Edit: I did this quickly in Traktor 4 and the implementation looks a little different now. So don't let that put you off. It works exactly as described with TP3.

    Might help to tell us what the track is (artist and title)…
