Apollo x6 Gen 2 Studio Bundle

UA's next generation of Apollo x6 interfaces is here, giving producers and project studios highest-resolution audio conversion, two Unison™ mic preamps, and HEXA Core DSP processing for writing and producing with world-class UAD plug-ins from Auto-Tune, Neve, Manley, SSL, and hundreds more. Apollo x6 brings legendary UA craftsmanship and the sound of the stars right to your rack.

Built for Producers Running Outboard Gear

Universal Audio built Apollo x6 for pro and project studios where highest-quality audio is a must. Connect to professional studio gear with 6 x 6 analog line-level I/O via 1/4" TRS, two Hi-Z instrument inputs, and two monitor outputs — plus two ADAT I/O, S/PDIF I/O, and wordclock I/O for outboard digital hardware.

Record Through Two Unison Preamps

With Unison™ technology, Apollo x6 lets you track in realtime through emulations of classic EQs, channel strips, and preamps from Neve, API, Manley, Fender, and more — giving you the same rich analog textures used on the greatest recordings of our time.

Hear the Details Like Never Before

Apollo x6 features UA's highest-resolution A/D and D/A converters ever, delivering 130 dB of dynamic range and -127 dB THD with Dual Crystal Clocking for ultralow jitter at all sample rates. Paired with Apollo Monitor Correction powered by Sonarworks, you'll hear the most accurate representation of your recordings on any stereo or 5.1 surround system.

Auto-Gain: Never Miss the Take

Set input gain across multiple channels in seconds without fear of clipping using the new Auto-Gain feature — available on all mic / line / Hi-Z preamp inputs. Effortlessly dial in the perfect recording level during a short auto training listening window.

Bass Management and Surround

Add a subwoofer with the new Bass Management feature for full-range stereo and surround monitoring up to 5.1, with a Speaker Utilities panel for trim, mute, and solo per speaker output.

Find Your Flow in the UAD Console App

Just like an analog studio where a console is the heart of the workflow, Apollo x6 has a powerful digital mixing engine where you control plug-in routing and monitoring. With Bass Management, surround audio up to 5.1, and Plug-In Scenes, it's easy to find a flow that fits your needs.

A Hybrid System, Made for Your Mission

Combine Apollo x6's HEXA Core DSP with native processing from your host computer to produce large sessions with complex plug-in chains — a powerhouse hybrid workflow that outpaces any native-only recording setup.

Expand Your Studio as You Grow

Build your studio by linking up to four Thunderbolt Apollo interfaces with up to 128 channels of premium I/O to your DAW, and control it all from your desktop using Apollo Twin or x4.

What's in the Studio+ Bundle

The Studio+ Bundle includes 50+ UAD plug-ins, adding premium gear on top of the Essentials+ library: the Avalon VT-737sp tube channel strip, Manley Reference Microphone Preamp, Telefunken V76 preamp, Empirical Labs Distressor, Fairchild 660 and 670 tube compressors, full Pultec passive EQ collection, Studer A800 tape machine, Lexicon 224 digital reverb, EMT 140 plate reverb, the Moog Minimoog Original synth, and the Waterfall B3 organ.
