The trick to using sub circuits from third parties in LT Spice is "brute force". You simply include the full text of the subcircuit in the LTspice simulation. It shows up as a test anotation in the schematic but. Trying to integrate it into the existing library takes more work, but direct inclus

LTSpice has a schematic capture and graphical output viewer associated with it. It is my suggestion. Using macro models from other vendors takes a bit of work. Using LTC parts is a snap. ;-) I prefer running a more traditional spice for noise analysis. Check out NGspice http://ngspice.sourcef
