Product description
The centerpiece of your next music project
UA's new generation of Apollo x6 interfaces has arrived for producers and small professional studios that need the highest-resolution digital audio converters possible, two Unison? mic preamps, and the HEXA Core DSP processor for composing and producing music with renowned UAD plug-ins, including Auto-Tune, emulations of equipment from Neve, Manley, Avalon, SSL, and hundreds of other effects.
The world's leading producers and engineers choose the Apollo x6 when they need the exceptional sound and DSP power of the Apollo X, but not the additional physical channels of the larger models. Today, we give you the opportunity to take your production environment to the next level with UA's timeless sound and legendary expertise.

Key benefits

The new centerpiece of your rack
Universal Audio designed the Apollo x6 for producers who need the highest-quality sound, but not all the additional analog preamps typically found on larger rackmount models. With its exceptional dynamic range, cutting-edge 24-bit / 192 kHz digital audio converters, and now even more advanced D/A monitoring features, the Apollo x6 brings star-quality sound directly to your rack.
All the inputs you need
With its two Unison? preamps and front-panel high-impedance instrument inputs, the Apollo x6 lets you record in real time while enjoying the sound of dozens of classic pieces of equipment, including those from Neve, Manley, API, Fender, and Marshall. And with its six additional line inputs, connecting your synthesizers, keyboards, and all the rest of your gear is effortless.
The vintage and modern blend for your mixes
The Apollo x6 gives you all the tools you need right out of the box to create breathtaking mixes. In addition to the synthesizers, tape echoes, Teletronix LA-2A compressors, and Pultec equalizers included with the interface, you can access more than 200 UAD plug-ins. These world-renowned processors will significantly elevate the quality of your productions.
Unprecedented detail
The second-generation Apollo x6 features D/A converters with the highest resolution UA has ever offered. They are paired with the Apollo Monitor Correction feature powered by Sonarworks® technology. This will not only let you achieve the most accurate representation of your recordings on your speakers or in your headphones, but also ensure there are no unpleasant surprises when you listen to your final mix or master.
UAD Console, the app that adapts to your needs
Like an analog studio, where everything runs through the console, the Apollo x6 features a powerful digital mixing engine that lets you control plug-in routing and monitoring. And with new features such as automatic gain adjustment, bass management, 5.1 surround sound support, and plug-in scenes, you'll have no trouble creating the optimal working environment.
A hybrid system designed for all your projects
Combine the Apollo x6's HEXA Core DSP with plug-ins running on your host computer to work on large-scale sessions with complex processing chains—a powerful hybrid environment that outperforms any native recording setup.
Your studio evolves with you
Adapt your studio to your needs by chaining up to four Apollo Thunderbolt interfaces. This gives you up to 128 inputs and outputs to work with in your DAW, and lets you control them without leaving your desk using an Apollo Twin or x4. Wherever your music takes you, you'll always have an Apollo within reach.**
