I assumed there would be some issues since the scripts are for Live 9 but I thought I would share what I have found in case anyone has solutions other that my annoying workarounds.

When in device mode the first 8 parameters can be changed straight way from a grouped device but if the device is standalone or in a rack I have to right click on it and lock the twitter to that device before it will change parameters, I can then unlock it and it will then carry on working as well on the same device but then will only work with that device regardless until I lock it to another one.

So unless I group everything I use I have to select each manually before using the twister to control parameters.
