MOTU M6 6x4 USB-C Low-Latency Audio Interface

MOTU M6 USB-C Audio Interface — Expanded Connectivity with Pro-Level Sound

The MOTU M6 is the most advanced model in the MOTU M-Series line, delivering exceptional audio fidelity, versatile I/O, and convenient hardware features tailored for music production, podcasting, live streaming, and content creation. Featuring ESS Sabre32 Ultra™ DAC technology, the M6 provides pristine 24-bit / 192 kHz audio with 120 dB dynamic range, ensuring professional-grade sound for every session.

6 Inputs, 4 Outputs & Flexible Routing

With four XLR/TRS combo inputs on the front panel (each with 48V phantom power and individual gain control), plus two rear-panel ¼" line inputs, the M6 allows multi-mic setups or hybrid analog/digital workflows. Four balanced line outputs support flexible speaker routing or stem monitoring, ideal for both home studios and on-the-go rigs.

Real-Time LCD Metering and Dual Headphone Monitoring

Like its smaller siblings, the M6 boasts a full-colour LCD screen for all inputs and outputs, offering real-time level metering for visual precision. Unique to the M6 are two independent headphone outputs—each with its own volume control—allowing separate cue mixes or simultaneous monitoring by two users.

Loopback & Live Streaming Ready

Whether you're podcasting, livestreaming, or creating tutorials, the built-in loopback function enables computer audio capture alongside microphone input—perfect for capturing system audio, Zoom calls, or music playback during streams. This makes the M6 a powerful interface for creators who need advanced routing without third-party software.

Studio-Ready & Travel-Friendly

The M6 runs via USB bus power for mobile setups, with optional DC power input for guaranteed performance with iOS devices. It’s compatible with macOS, Windows, and iOS, and ships with a suite of software including Performer Lite, Ableton Live 10 Lite, and over 6 GB of loops and sounds to inspire immediate creativity.
