What is L-ISA Studio ?
L‐ISA Studio allows sound creators to mix object-based audio anywhere from home in binaural on headphones or in a studio with up to 16 audio outputs.
Re-Designed Snapshot EngineNew
Improve your workflow with more granularity. Visualize the position of any object in any snapshot. With online and offline editing and previewing, users can quickly iterate and create complex programming without the complex work.
Innovative FX EngineNew
Work in real-time and easily create reactive content with the FX Engine. With fully customizable controls and spatial behaviors, the FX Engine can be additively applied to unlimited objects, allowing even the simplest of mixes to come alive in new and complex ways.
Create Spatial Audio Anywhere
L ISA Studio's binaural engine can produce scalable natural, immersive 3D audio on headphones with head tracking – or up to 16 audio outputs in any studio. Create 3D music for any spatial audio streaming platform such as Apple Music and Amazon Spatial Audio, and more.
Mix in Any Studio and Any Format
Render an L-ISA frontal system, an 8.1 surround configuration, or a 3D configuration in a 7.1.4 format via the 16 audio outputs of L-ISA Studio. Connect to mixing consoles, tracking systems, OSC devices, and more.
Design 3D Sound
Create your custom sound environment by placing sound objects anywhere in an environment through L-ISA Studio's room engine.
Binaural Mix on Headphones
Use the L-ISA binaural engine with certified head trackers to hear your immersive mix over headphones with high realism. Users can also create content from recorded live shows for broadcast in multichannel formats or binaural for post-production.
Why use L-ISA Studio ?
L-ISA Processor Desktop
Get the same spatial audio and room engine algorithms as the L-ISA Processor on your desktop. Render from up to 96 audio objects (via the L-ISA Audio Bridge) onto 16 audio outputs sent to your favorite soundcard.
L-ISA Audio Bridge
Route up to 96 audio objects and 16 loudspeakers between your Digital Audio Workstation and the L-ISA Processor Desktop, no external hardware needed. Create mixes for most studio formats of 5.1, 7.1, 9.1, 5.1.2, 7.1.2, 7.1.4, 9.1.6, and 16.0.
Spatial Processing
Achieve maximum spatial precision and sound quality while preserving the ability to scale to large audiences. The L-ISA's four positioning parameters (PAN, WIDTH, DISTANCE, and ELEVATION) have been precisely designed for this achievement.
Transform your mix, not your working habits
Use L-ISA Studio with your favorite DAW: Pro Tools, Nuendo, Ableton Live, Reaper, Logic and many more
“We are very proud to present L-ISA Studio, the ultimate swiss army knife for anyone who creates with sound. Now, your object-based mix and immersive production can go anywhere you go! Your venue, be it real or imaginary, can come with you too. All you need is a pair of headphones and a laptop. Your imagination is the limit.”

Director of L-ISA Labs
