Key Features
The MOTU M6 6-Channel Audio Interface is compromised of a premium-grade interface and an extensive software bundle, that provides all the tools you need to achieve the sound you want. From simple vocal recording to mixing multiple sound sources, the M6 is equipped with the finest components to deliver the utmost sonic accuracy.
At the front of the M6's sleek all-black interface lies four combi-jack inputs. Incredibly versatile, these allow you to record signals from both microphones and line-level sources such as synths, guitars, keyboards and basses. Thanks to the inclusion of state-of-the-art ESS digital-to-analog converters you'll be provided with a level of quality that is normally only found within high-end interfaces.
They'll be nothing stopping you from recording in real time thanks to the M6's ultra-low-latency monitoring. This allows you to perform whilst hearing yourself, without being put off by undesirable delays. The inclusion of a detailed LCD screen provides accurate at-a-glance metering at all times. Best of all, the M6 is bus-powered so can be used on iOS systems without the need for installing drivers.

From drums to strings, and pianos to vocals. It's hard to make bad recordings when you've got MOTU preamps in your set-up. The four studio-grade preamps guarantee crystal clear, transparent reproduction of virtually any instrument or voice. Their low-noise floor and extensive dynamic range makes every source sound wholly natural. So much so that upon later playback, you'll be forgiven for forgetting that you're not in the same room as the artist!
To ensure you hit the ground running the M6 comes complete with Ableton Live Lite and MOTU performer Lite. The choice of two fully-functioning DAWs allows you to find the system that's right for you for a stress-free recording experience. Over 100 highly-realistic virtual instruments are included in Performer Lite, alongside 6GB of the finest loops, sounds and samples that will kick-start your creativity.
The M6 includes useful loopback channels. This enables you to capture a multi-track signal of both your computer's audio and microphones which can be sent back into the DAW. If you're a podcaster or journalist who regularly interviews celebrities over Skype, Teams and Zoom then this will definitely come in handy!
Incorporate your favourite MIDI controller thanks to the inclusion of a traditional 5-pin MIDI input and output section. This eliminates the need for an additional MIDI interface. The streamlined set-up that the M6 provides allows you to focus on what's most important - making excellent music. Thanks to this handy feature, you'll be able to send MIDI data from your DAW as CV to your outboard analog synthesizers, Eurorack and modular set-ups.
