Here's the reason you were talking about I guess

" The main reason you can not record the joystick is that there is no
 place for recording the pitch destinations in the sequencer. Even if
 you could record it you would not be able to edit the pitch, which
 would be rather non-perfect. Instead, the Joystick lives its own
 real-time life, which hopefully is useful to some people.

 As mentioned here before, there is a freeze-trick you can use by
 interrupting the data-stream by changing track while you are moving
 the joystick!"


All or nothing I guess.
