Four Microphone Inputs. Top Audio Quality, Performance & Level Meters!

Audio Quality
Equipped with the same ESS Sabre32 Ultra DAC technology found in audio interfaces costing thousands of euros, the M6 delivers an astonishing 120 dB dynamic range at its main outputs. The ESS converters also drive the headphone outputs, which easily compete with dedicated headphone amplifiers costing hundreds of euros. Ultra-clean preamp circuits produce a measured noise floor of -129 dBu at the microphone inputs. This ensures absolutely pure and uncolored audio recordings.
- ESS Sabre32 Ultra DAC technology for outstanding analog sound
- The same converter technology used in audio interfaces costing thousands of euros
- Measured dynamic range of 120 dB at the outputs
- Measured noise floor -129 dBu EIN at the microphone inputs
- ESS-driven headphone outputs
Speed
The M6 offers top speed for monitoring live inputs (microphone, guitar, or keyboard) through the computer, thanks to advanced USB drivers delivering an ultra-low round-trip latency (RTL) of 2.5 ms (32 sample buffer at 96 kHz).


Level Meters
When recording and mixing, nothing is more important than optimal levels. The M6 is the only audio interface in its class with a 160x120 pixel color LCD display that provides clear and detailed level meters for all inputs and outputs.
Loopback
The M6 driver offers loopback channels to the host computer, allowing computer outputs to be easily routed back to the computer, where they can be mixed with live microphones and/or guitar inputs from the M6 in the host software for live streaming or podcasting. Streaming and podcasting have never been this easy and sounded this good!


A/B Monitor Switch
The M6 is the only audio interface in its class that offers an A/B monitor switch. Connect two pairs of monitors and compare your mixes on each pair with just one button press.
Stand-Alone Operation
With the included power supply, you can power the M6 even without a computer connected. This lets you use all live inputs (microphones, guitars, keyboards, etc.) in stand-alone mode.

Every MOTU audio interface embodies decades of award-winning product development for hit songs, mega tours, primetime shows, and blockbuster films.

Comfortable Stereo Headphones
The KH-238 delivers a full, balanced sound with rich bass response and clear highs. It offers plenty of volume yet clean and precise imaging in the stereo field. Naturally, the softly padded, wide headband is length-adjustable. The extension offers 12 steps on each side for optimal fit. For even more comfort, the ear cups are mounted on two-axis pivots. The thick, soft padding of the circumaural ear cups also provides good external noise isolation. The integrated volume control on the cable is always within reach, making it easy to use with a PC or mp3 player. The 3.5 mm stereo jack plug delivers excellent transmission quality, and a 6.3 mm stereo jack adapter (nickel-plated) is also included in the package.
