+.Sh SYNOPSIS
+.Cd "esm* at pci? dev ? function ?"
+.Cd "audio* at audiobus?"
+.Sh DESCRIPTION
+The
+.Nm
+device driver supports sound cards based on ESS Technology Maestro,
+Maestro-2, and Maestro-2E PCI AC97 Audio Accelerator chips (ES1968 and ES1978).
+Due to their power management capabilities, the Maestro chips are often used
+in laptop and notebook systems.
+.Pp
+The Maestro is a full-duplex device that allows independent playback and
+recording at sample rates between 4000 Hz and 48 kHz.
+The sound processor is capable of handling and converting 8 and 16 bit mono
+and stereo data.

+.Xr joy 4 ,
+.Xr mpu 4 ,
+.Xr pci 4
+.Sh HISTORY
+The
+.Nm
+device driver appeared in
+.Nx 1.6 .
+.Sh BUGS
+Currently, this driver only supports 16-bit mono recording; an unknown bug
+causes stereo recording to miss a channel.
+Also not supported yet are hardware volume settings, MIDI, and joystick input.
