hi dave, great observation and one that would benefit the system as 
well. i don't have the joystick module, but may i suggest you use the 
A119 module and adjust the threshold to the rate you like for 
triggering the gate. i not sure if it would work because the input 
might only accept an audio source and not a cv source . plus you may 
have to offset the the input gian so it can read the voltage. if 
there was a pitch to voltage module, you would be able to do so 
without a problem providing there was an adjustable comparator. i 
have achieved similar results with an Ems pitch to voltage converter. 
good luck.
