That puts the AMM on par with half the sound persons and choir directors of the world.

No gates! Downward expansion, yes, but for live sound vocal mics the hard on/off, either/or changes the level of the background/ambient sound at a disturbingly audible level. This is the definition of “pumping”.
Having the option to select downard expansion on the gates is my most fervent and often xpressed feature request. It should be easily doable as it is merely a modification of an existing function (gating) rather than a totally new facet of the software.
