Of course not. It cannot work this way. A gate signal is completely different from a sync signal.

You may wish to check out the following sources to learn about some of the basics:

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/CV/gate#Gate
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/DIN_sync
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/MIDI_beat_clock
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/MIDI_timecode

The Minibrute can be synced through the MIDI IN and USB jacks, so you need a device to get the sync signal there. The Volca Beats (yes, I do have and use both machines in question) does not have MIDI Out. It is thus a better idea to sync both from an external sync source. I use the E-RM Midiclock and a Kenton MIDI Thru 5 (just for having more parallel outputs) for this purpose, and that works really well.
