Would it be feasible to try to compile and insert a linux kernel module to drive a Steinberg Midex device? I have done such things in the past with various versions of linux, but never OpenWRT.
We will look into it but no promises.

Actually I was considering trying it myself and was seeking reassurance that it wasn’t a poor idea.
I assume if I compile and upload the module whose code is at GitHub - sgorpi/midex8: Linux driver for Steinberg's MIDEX8, login via ssh and do insmod, it might not load, but at least wouldn’t brick the device as far as you can tell?
exactly. We have published the OpenWRT version here:
Unfortunately that build system is old, so may not run well on current host systems.
Let us know if you have any luck! Or, if you get stuck, maybe we can finish building that module.
