Best-in-class D/A converters, low latency
MOTU has enjoyed a long-standing relationship with MOTU products that deliver superior sound and solid performance to our customers. The M6 ​​does the same by packing premium sound, impressively low latency, and ample I/O into a single-rack chassis. The renowned ESS Sabre32 Ultra DAC technology delivers 120dB of dynamic range, ensuring the M6’s analog audio quality matches the most impressive hardware on the market. Optimized drivers deliver round-trip latency as low as 2.5ms across the 32-sample buffer at 24-bit/96kHz. The M6 ​​includes all the essential connections, including four mic/line/hi-Z guitar inputs on combined XLR/TRS jacks, four DC-coupled analog outputs, and an ESS-driven stereo headphone output. MIDI I/O is also included.

Loopback function makes live internet streaming easy
If you do live streaming or podcasting, you'll appreciate the MOTU M6's loopback function. Loopback blends your microphone or other input signals with your computer's output and then sends the signal back to your computer. This lets you record your computer's output along with the material you input. The M6 ​​also includes a mix button to balance your live input with your computer's playback.

Monitoring offers zero-latency operation
Latency can really take the magic out of a performance – it’s jarring. That’s why the M6 ​​includes one-touch monitoring. This feature ensures zero-latency operation by having all of the interface’s analog inputs routed directly to its analog outputs. This means there’s no delay between what you’re playing and/or singing and what you’re hearing through your headphones. The M6’s inputs are recorded simultaneously, allowing you to record with zero latency while monitoring – a must for achieving a natural-sounding performance.
