I have also recently learned that putting the Dyn 3 gate on a track delays it by 96 samples and that this too should be nudged forward in time to compensate.

So the question is since the main kick has a Dyn 3 on it and needs to be nudged, does the key input track need to be nudged and extra 96 on top of the 50 I'm doing?

Thanks in advance.
If you're using this technique, the trigger track always needs to be earlier than the gated track. So yes - if you're nudging one 96samples earlier, the trigger has to be 96 +50 (or whatever) earlier.

...otherwise the trigger will be 46samples later than the audio of course!

Although Mr Dye's method is probably less hassle.
