The new gates are bascially expanders (the opposite of a compressor). This means that loud signals get louder while soft signals get even softer. Normally, those loud signals should be your guitar signals, while the noise should be the soft signals that are reduced. However, there might be situations where the signal and noise cannot be separated properly and the expander will fail. This might the case if the noise is extremely high while the guitar signal is rather soft. Maybe you could try set the clean sense a little higher if your pickups are not that hot.
... this is why we have the more intelligent gate in the input section. It works much better in many situations.
