[PATCH REQUEST] ESI Juli@ eX – currently unsupported, manufacturer info

[Carlisle Nightingale <thyriaen@xxxxxxxxx>]

Resending with proper subject, sorry for the noise.

Hi all,

I’d like to share some information I received directly from the
manufacturer (ESI) regarding the new sound card Juli@ eX.

The alsa-project pointed me to this mailing list:
https://github.com/alsa-project/alsa-lib/issues/462

Currently the card does not work under Linux, since the kernel driver
would need to fully handle the DAC and ADC control, which has changed
compared to previous models from ESI. The manufacturer has no resources to
provide documentation right now, but shared the following details:

- DAC: ES9080Q (to be replaced by ES9081Q in a later revision – this
  will affect driver support)
- ADC: ES9822PRO

Datasheets are available at: https://www.esstech.com

Hopefully this helps as a starting point if the community wants to
work on support for this card.

Kind regards,
Carlisle
