if you got a hardware spec, then take a look at the sources already
existing. there are likely drivers with the similar chip design.
then copy it, and modify it.
also, it would be better to ask Emagic whether the spec can be put on
a public place, so that other developers can be involved with the
development.
unfortunately, there is no documentation about alsa kernel api.
the source is only exact information.
my old post on alsa-devel ML might help you to write a driver.
please check the ml archive (or google).
if you have no experience about writing device drivers, i recommend to
read a book before actually coding. a book from o'reily "linux device
driver" is the best one. it's even available on the web as a pdf
file.

Update... emagic looks to have been bought out by apple.... Has anyone
had experience dealing with this company before....
AFAIK the card is pretty much unique....
The main logic chip is a
PHILIPS
SAA 7146A HZ
CA1950.0
ktD9917V2
It cost me $500 dollars and It has a warm crisp sound that I haven't
been able to get from anything else.
Does anybody have any clues....
