Can't live record notes via cv input bug?

[MidiSlave]

I though I might record some notes from one track into another track to capture some of the semi random melodies i've been generating. I am able to record gates via cv input but not notes. Occasionally one note or two notes get recorded into the track but mostly nothing is being recorded. I wonder if it's a bug or if I'm doing something wrong. 

I have a pattern on track one that i'm also sending via an automator slot and an envelope to the cv inputs configured live record to CV 3 and GATE 3.
