In the case of David Z's Max objects, you may be out of luck. Max is a
Macintosh program. (and a truly awesome and ridiculously useful one at
that.) Last I heard there were no serious plans to port it to PC. Don't 
know
about LiSa.

Oh, and if you don't know who David Zicarelli is, pretty much anything he's
ever been involved with is likely to be great. (except maybe g-wiz, he
worked there for a brief time near the end, but not long enough to do
anything good.)
