Substance PBR-Node Blender

Hi,
I tried recreating the Substance PBR-Node from the LiveDB inside Blender.
When I try opening it inside Blender it always crashes. I suspect it has sth. to do with the node shown in the attachement.

There is a gradient used as input for a starting value of another gradient. I couldn't recreate that inside Blender aswell.
Any suggestions?

Best regards Dario

Does really nobody have an idea to replicate the substance pbr material from the LiveDB inside Blender?
I can't use the existing ones, because it always crashes.

Here's what i found on the C4D forum. The gradient node doesn't look the same in Blender. Why is that? How can I achieve a start and end input in the gradient node?!

Blender has a simple implementation of its gradient node's ramp with no input pins generated for positions - only direct RGB colors are supposed to be there by Blender developers. And there is no way to add different additional pins at runtime to different nodes of the same type (or remove them) - Blender nodes are built statically.
But I will consider some workarounds if possible for this in later plugin versions.
