Why you gotta be so mean?
I can't really find any. Obviously I want something cheap, everyone does. But how do they compare to more expensive ones? What are more expensive ones? I am looking for it for snare.

You can twist almost any maul-the-band compressor into a frequency conscious gate. The only one I've used that was worth a damn (IMO/E) was the UAD Precision Maul-The-Band (multi-band).
For that matter, it's one of the only MBC's I'd use - as rarely as that happens. I use it as a frequency conscious expander far more (probably 10 to 1) than as a compressor.

The Waves R-Channel does it and I believe the sonalksis gate too

the VC64 channelstrip that comes with sonar6 and maybe newer versions has one on it. VC64 is made by another company that has it's own version, but I can't remember the company off the top of my head.
I will do a bit of looking. It's a decent freq dependent gate and it's part of a very nice channel with dual compression.

Surely the OP is just looking for a gate with a side-chain function??

It aint ez being green
What makes you think that? I don't see what a sidechain has to do with anything, unless my understanding of what a sidechain is and its capability is wrong.

There's a big difference between side-chaining a gate and a frequency-conscious expander/gate... I think the OP is pretty clear.
At least, I hope so - Otherwise, we're all wasting a lot of time on a lousy side-chain for a gate...

Basically replace compressor in the majority of the article with gate. I think this was what the OP was driving at? Plus it's free if you already have a gate with side-chain capability and a DAW that can route appropriately.

Digital Fishphones Floorfish is exactly what you need and it's free.

Go for it, baby!
That may be on my website, but it's Masteringhouse Tom's article, and a very good one at that.
I also second Jay's recommendation on Floorfish. All the Fishphones stuff is pretty good, especially for the price
