Universal Audio Apollo x6 Gen 2 Studio Thunderbolt Interface
Making a record? The difference between good and legendary often hides in the details — the vintage warmth of a preamp, the crystal clarity of conversion, the punch of a perfectly compressed vocal.
The Universal Audio Apollo x6 Gen 2 is your command center for capturing those legendary nuances. This rackmount powerhouse delivers pristine sound quality and massive DSP processing, all within a sleek unit for producers who demand excellence without excess.
Unleash Your Sonic Potential
Top producers and engineers trust Apollo, and it's not just for aesthetics. This interface is built to be the beating heart of your studio, delivering a sonic punch that elevates every track you create. From its next-generation audio conversion to the iconic tones of Unison preamps, the Apollo x6 is more than an interface — it's your unfair advantage, your secret weapon for sonic supremacy.
Elite-Class Audio Conversion: Hear your music with unparalleled clarity. The Apollo x6 features UA’s next-gen 24-bit/192 kHz converters, boasting the widest dynamic range and lowest distortion of any Apollo. Every nuance, every breath, every ounce of low-end thump is captured with astonishing precision.
Two Unison™ Mic Preamps: Why just record when you can record through legends? Unison technology lets you track in real-time through spot-on emulations of iconic preamps from Neve, API, Manley, and Avalon. It's like having a multi-million-dollar mic locker right in your rack.
HEXA Core DSP Processing: Say goodbye to CPU overload. With six SHARC processors under the hood, you have the raw power to run a huge library of acclaimed UAD plug-ins — from Auto-Tune to classic SSL consoles — without breaking a sweat. Mix bigger, bolder, and better.
A Workflow That Fits Your Needs
The Apollo x6 isn’t just about specs; it’s about creating a seamless bridge between your ideas and your final mix. Universal Audio has obsessed over every detail to make the recording process faster, more intuitive, and more inspiring, so you can stay in the creative zone.
Apollo Monitor Correction: Mix with total confidence, no matter where you are. Powered by Sonarworks, this feature calibrates your monitors and headphones, flattening their frequency response so you hear a true representation of your mix. What you hear is what you get, every single time.
Auto-Gain for Perfect Levels: Never ruin a perfect take with clipping again. Auto-Gain instantly analyzes your input and sets the optimal recording level across multiple channels in seconds. Just arm the track, hit the button, and focus on the performance.
UAD Console App: Think of this as your digital mission control. The updated Console app is a powerful virtual mixer that lets you route audio, manage plug-in chains, and create low-latency cue mixes effortlessly. With features like Plug-In Scenes and 5.1 Surround support, your workflow just got a major upgrade.
The Heart of Your Studio
The Apollo x6 looks as good as it sounds, with a rugged, road-ready build and an intuitive front panel that puts essential controls right at your fingertips. It’s designed to be the reliable core of your production setup, providing all the connectivity you need to bring your studio together.
Flexible I/O for Any Setup: With two Unison preamps, two front-panel Hi-Z inputs for guitars and basses, six line inputs for synths and outboard gear, and six line outputs for surround sound mixing or alternate monitors, you have plenty of room to connect your entire setup.
Expand As You Grow: Your studio shouldn't hold you back. Easily link up to four Thunderbolt Apollo interfaces to expand your I/O and DSP power as your needs evolve. From a single desktop unit to a massive multi-rack system, the Apollo ecosystem grows with you.
Included Plug-In Bundles: Get started with a treasure trove of hit-making tools right out of the box. Choose between the Essentials+ or Studio+ editions to get award-winning UAD plug-ins from Teletronix, Fairchild, Pultec, and more, giving you thousands of dollars in value before you even buy your first add-on.
