ESI Julia PCI Soundcard

The ESI Juli@ PCI sound card features the highest quality 24-bit 192Khz ADC (114dB) and DAC (112dB) for the best quality audio. The unique swappable I/O socket allows you to choose your analog connectors between unbalanced RCA jacks and balanced TRS jacks. You don't have to configure your studio to Juli@, you can configure Juli@ to your studio. Juli@'s EWDM drivers provide unparalled performance and stability, and provide support for all professional audio applications using ASIO and GSIF drivers.

With the powerful EWDM drivers and MIDI I/O, the Juli@ is perfect for post-production studios, one man bands and for use with mixers. You can monitor the inputs and outputs directly through the digital mixer.

Juli@'s optical and digital outputs allow AC3/DTS pass through for Dolby digital and DTS surround sound playback.
