Do you have a trigger signal patched to the A140's Gate input, 
rather than a gate signal? This tends to cause clicks with short 
decay times, because the ADSR envelope skips past the Sustain segment.

If this is the problem, the standard cure is to patch the trigger 
signal through an A162, converting it into a gate signal. Adjust the 
A162's LEN knob to control gate time. When used with an A155, e.g. 
this gives you the same sort of functionality as the "Gate Time" 
parameter on the MAQ 16/3, Schaltwerk and Regelwerk sequencers.
