VCA's while in Record Mode 

I use Pro Tools to both multitrack and create live broadcast mixes at the same time. VCA masters are great but it would be nice to have them work while recording. I know that they work through automation and that gets disabled on audio tracks while in record mode which essentially turns off fader control via the VCAs. Right now I use a lot of convoluted bussing through aux tracks in order to make this work, which is not ideal. It would be great if the VCA's would still work fully while controlling audio tracks in record mode.
