I don’t recall using the right side of the gate enough to say it wasn’t doing that prior to the firmware update, but if you leave the knob to the right when it has cut out, it should come back with a certain rate based on the dynamics of the music, the peak level you’re hitting, etc. Others would have to chime in on whether or not it’s been changed in the latest update.
BTW, here is their description of the earlier firmware and Gate to the right, and I don’t see it to be different than what I’m seeing now…
