TOMO Audiolabs LISA
TOMO Audiolabs LISA is a dynamic EQ audio plugin from Plugin Alliance that emulates a boutique mastering-grade hardware unit. It features six bands of opto-compression-based dynamic equalization, each with independent compression and expansion circuits, switchable between compressor and expander modes. The plugin includes parametric mid bands, shelving high and low bands, dedicated boost bands, and highpass/lowpass filters, designed primarily for mastering applications. It offers a workflow similar to classic analog EQs like Sontec and Massenburg, with parallel circuit architecture for more transparent processing, and includes digital-only features like TX Drive transformer saturation and Brainworx's TMT (Tolerance Modeling Technology). LISA is available as an AAX, VST, VST3 and AU plugin.
AI Recommendation
1 suggestionTOMO Audiolabs LISA is an AAX plugin that runs inside Avid Pro Tools, and according to the Plugin Alliance changelog, a native Apple Silicon build was added in version 1.2.0 (released August 2023). The plugin is kept up to date through the Plugin Alliance Installation Manager — the vendor's dedicated installer and updater tool, not through Pro Tools itself or the App Store. To get the latest native version: download and open Plugin Alliance Installation Manager from the vendor's website, sign in with your Plugin Alliance account, navigate to LISA, and click Install or Update. The installer will automatically serve the native Apple Silicon build on M-series Macs. After installation, LISA will appear in Pro Tools' plugin menu. Note that Pro Tools itself must be on version 2023.6 or newer for full native AAX plugin compatibility; if your Pro Tools is older, update it first via Avid's Application Manager.
