Rekordbox and Cross beatgrids

When i import a playlist from Cross into recordbox, will it keep my Cross beatgrids or does it revert back to the rekordbox beatgrids? Ive noticed that Cross might be a little better at Beatgrids than rekordbox.
Also, is there some way to import tracks from my rekordbox usb to keep their beatgrids. What i mean is, when I play, I often adjust (finetune) the beatgrid using the cdj (on the nexus). When I come back home after work, I want to import them back into rekordbox or Cross.

make sense?

From Cross to Recordbox you should use the export function for this. Import Playlist (as in .m3u) won't work for this.
Import from RecordBox into Cross is not possible.

sure, so if i use the bridge function in rekordbox, will the beatgrids be rekordbox's beatgrids, or will it be the fixed grid from Cross?

From Cross you export to a recordbox readable file. From recordbox you bridge to the exported file.
Does this answer your question?

No, sorry it doesnt. Perhaps Im just stupid. Let me try to make it even more clear.

I have a playlist and some tracks in Cross. I edit all my cue points, and adjust the beatgrid in Cross. I found that Cross has a better beat grid detection engine than Rekordbox for some odd reason (or it could just be my imagination). So I adjusted all in Cross and everything works well and nice. Now I export it to Rekordbox using the export function. That part I understand.

When i go to RB, I open the bridge area and then the playlist is there with all my cue points However, what about my adjusted beat grid? Im asking this because I noticed that I have to re anylize the trks with rekordbox. It then picks up my cues and stuff but the grid that i adjusted is lost
