Why can I not leave the envelope open until re trigger by gate?

Question

So I want to trigger a duck from a kick and then leave open. this seems like basic functionality that is not present?  Instead the envelope allays closes to silence? Sometimes with a nasty click.  Or Am I missing something?  Can I just trigger a duck then leave the envelope 100% open until next gate trigger?

Yea no problem , I'm a semi pro musician for many years but my fist time using reason and trying to mix some dance music.  Tbo the options and possibilities with reason are a little overwhelming but I was surprised that there is no built in option for envelope ducking (besides using side chain compressors) which is how I come to find your software.   I have it on a number of busses now at different levels and the sound is nice and punchy.  I've also experiment with soft pre ducking which is giving pleasant results.     If the end track is good enough I will surely post a vid showing production.   If not then I won't embarrass your product. 😬

Actually I can do what I need with Passthrough, Loop, and Reset all checked and use the cv from Drum Sequencer.
