I would likw to have the option to analyze the bpm in the old way , stable it's not the same as in older versions. I dont like the new variable bpm option because the accuracy is not perfect. Sampler with kicks is not good with the new variable bpm.

I agree with that too; the option to analyze the previous BPM was much better and more precise, and I could place my exact cue points even when the song's BPM was variable.
Hopefully, they'll continue to include it when the official 2026 update comes out, because Virtual DJ is such a powerful and adaptable software.

So you still can place cuepoints anywhere - you just need to set quantize set cue off.
The fluid BPM is 100% better than the multi analysis of before - I can't see why anyone would want to go back to the old one, it was just not good at all.
The real issue for me is that they changed how the BPM editor functioned in that mode, if the fluid scanner gets it wrong and you want to manually correct things.
Previously, you could add beatgrid anchor anywhere and move them at will - all that did was introduce a new stable BPM zone that point onwards to the next anchor or to the end of the track if there wasn't any more anchors.
Now you have to add an anchor in a measure line, you can't move tha anchor at will and it doesn't see like you can add an anchor before the first measure line if it's close to the start of the song.
I understand the need for the new BPM analyzer; I don't understand the need for those anchor behavior changes in the BPM editor, given the entire set of BPM zones are written out - it just makes it harder to use vs the previous workflow (and in some cases I can't figure out how to get in a manual correction).

I agree, this new method seems a bit backwards compared to the first one, where you could click to make an anchor and then click it to position it.
If there were random anchors you could delete them and it would "reset" the tempo in that area.
Now it's fiddly with right clicking and then holding shift down to move (not easy with a laptop trackpad).
Also deleting markers that the analysis put in randomly doesn't reset the tempo in that area.
I have got a little bit used to it now, but prefer the old method.
Good thing is, it seems the new system does understand the old, so it's possible to do your edits on an old build, then play them in the new one.

If only we had an option or toggle button to use variable BPM in the old, traditional way to edit anchors, it would be very useful for those of us who use Virtual DJ, since the old variable method was better and more accurate for adjusting the markers.
