MOTU M6 6x4 USB-C Audio Interface
Category: antelope audio interface
The M6 audio interface from MOTU delivers exceptional audio quality, unparalleled performance, and innovative features that cater to the diverse needs of modern music production, live streaming, and podcasting.
Equipped with the renowned ESS Sabre32 Ultra DAC Technology, the M6 boasts an astonishing 120 dB dynamic range on its main outputs, on par with high-end audio interfaces costing thousands. This superior converter technology also drives the headphone outputs, rivaling dedicated headphone amplifiers. The ultra-clean preamp circuits further enhance the clarity, with a measured -129 dBu EIN on the mic inputs, ensuring pristine capture and monitoring of your audio.
Designed for low-latency performance, the M6 leverages MOTU's expertly engineered USB drivers to deliver a class-leading 2.5 ms Round Trip Latency (at 96 kHz with a 32 sample buffer), enabling seamless live input monitoring through your computer.
The M6's standout feature is its full-color LCD with detailed level meters for all inputs and outputs, providing essential visual feedback for achieving optimal recording and mixing levels. This professional-grade metering ensures you have complete control over your sound.
For live streaming and podcasting, the M6 offers convenient loopback channels, allowing you to easily route computer output back to the computer and mix it with up to four mics (and/or guitars) from the M6 within your host software. This streamlined workflow elevates the quality and production value of your live streams and podcasts.
Uniquely, the M6 is the only audio interface in its class to offer an A/B monitor switching feature, enabling you to quickly compare your mixes on two separate monitor pairs with the push of a button.
Complementing its exceptional audio performance, the M6 also includes a comprehensive software package. Performer Lite provides a complete music production suite, with over 100 virtual instruments, dozens of effects plugins, guitar FX processing, and 6 GB of loops and sounds. Live Lite 11, a lightweight version of Ableton Live 11, further expands the creative possibilities.
Designed for standalone operation, the M6 can be powered using the included multi-blade international DC power adapter, allowing you to monitor live inputs even when the computer is turned off or disconnected.
Boasting a solid and secure construction, the M6 features a rugged metal chassis with a solid yet lightweight extruded aluminum alloy shell, steel faceplates, precision-knurled knobs, and a Kensington security slot for added durability and protection.
Underpinning the M6's impressive capabilities is MOTU's decades-long tradition of engineering excellence, which has produced award-winning products used in hit songs, mega tours, primetime shows, and blockbuster movies. This legacy of innovation and quality is evident in every aspect of the M6 audio interface.
