Apollo x6 Gen 2 STU+

Produce hits with our most advanced Apollo x6 to date. Featuring highest-resolution audio conversion, two Unison™ mic preamps, and realtime UAD processing — which lets you record through plug-ins from Neve, API, Manley, Auto-Tune, and more without latency — Apollo x6 puts decades of inspiring analog sound right in your rack.

We built Apollo x6 for producers who need the highest-quality sound, without additional analog preamps found in larger rackmount models. With unprecedented dynamic range, elite-class Apollo X audio conversion, and enhanced D/A monitoring, Apollo x6 puts the sound of the stars right in your rack.

Use two Unison™ preamps and front panel Hi‑Z instrument inputs to track in realtime with the sound of classic gear from Neve, Manley, API, Fender, Marshall, and dozens more. And with six additional line inputs, it’s easy to connect your hardware synths, keyboards, and outboard gear.

Right out of the box, Apollo x6 gives you the plug-ins used by the world’s best engineers. Get legendary Teletronix LA-2A and 1176 compressors, UA 610, Century, and LA-6176 tube channel strips, plus UAD guitar amps like Showtime ’64 and Lion ’68. Choose from a selection of upgrade bundles to tap into the entire UAD library of over 200 titles to unlock proven hit-making sounds.

Now in its Gen 2 design, Apollo x6 features our highest-resolution D/A converters ever. This enhanced monitoring, paired with features like Apollo Monitor Correction by Sonarworks,* means you’ll hear the most accurate representation of your recordings when mixing through monitors or headphones. *Requires SoundID Reference software and compatible measurement microphone.

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. And with the latest features like Auto-Gain, Bass Management, 5.1 Surround Sound, and Plug-In Scenes, it’s easy to find a flow that fits your needs.
