Traktor PRO 2.5 SYNC behaves differently from Tractor PRO

Very recently got Traktor Pro 2.5 and had been using Traktor pro for years.
When I pressed SYNC on Traktor 1.21 it would shift the BPM to the master track (deck B for example). Then when i switched SYNC off it would keep the track at the same BPM which i liked instead of reverting it, meaning i could trigger the track when i pleased.
On this new version however. When I select SYNC under exactly the same circumstances the track shifts the BPM but when i toggle SYNC off, it reverts back to the track’s original BPM.

How can I get this new version 2.5 to behave like Traktor 1.21?
As far as I can tell I have emulated all of the settings from my previous version but I don’t know why it behaves like this. It means that when I start a track which has slightly odd timing (of which i have many) there is a delay before the track actually plays. It’s very frustrating.

Thanks for any help in advance

Sounds like you have Temposync enabled instead of Beatsync. Try changing to Beatsync (under Transpot controls in Settings) and see if that helps.

This has no effect on it. My previous set up on Traktor pro 1.2 was set to temposync which i prefer but changing it on the new version doesn’t affect it.

I can disable the quirk if I hit SYNC, play the track and turn SYNC off whilst the track is playing but this is just a hassle.

Thanks for your suggestion though

Traktor 2 always behaved that way. Why they changed it? I have no clue. It annoyed me quite a bit at first, now I just got used to it. Play the track, hit sync and disable it, it should keep the new BPM when you stop it.

That really is annoying! I just upgraded to TSP 2 days ago and it drove me insane. I resolved to doing the same thing that blows.
