Beat Gridding

Would like to set beat grids in some old tracks that are all over the place.
Couple of questions -

If I hit X on the downbeat for say 1/2 the track, will Serato pull in the remainder of the track to make accurate beatgrids?

How do I save that track IE for it to remain perfectly beatgrid in my library?

Also if the tacks BPM is incorrect after analyzing files, would it be best to correct the BPM before any beat gridding?

Hey there,

If you set a marker, Serato DJ will calculate where to put the rest of the markers dependent on the set BPM. These old tracks often have drifting BPMs. This means you'll need to manually set markers throughout the entire track.

Cheers.
