To be honest, as I don't know, what is the definition of 6.1. The others make sense, 5.1 & 7.1( center speaker plus multiples of pairs)
What is 6.1? Center plus ?

Center rear speaker.

At one point, there was DTS-ES that was a 6.1 speaker layout adding the center rear speaker as wavelength has mentioned.

Got it, center rear speaker, now makes sense, thank you.

This Chesky Chuck Mangione has a 6.0 mix; that if I remember correctly is supposed to be 2 offset center channels. But I also seem to remember a lot of this one is merely room ambiance, maybe like an Ambisonic recording.

Have a look to this thread here in QQ. Some music albums on DTS-ES 6.1
Which discs have DTS-ES 6.1?

In My {HUMBLE} Opinion, ALL of Chesky's multichannel releases save for a scant few have rear ambience only but are recorded to such HIGH STANDARDS it sometimes obfuscates the need for discrete elements. Since most of them are encoded at lower than normal levels, a volume boost will bring out the merits in Chesky's minimalist approach to surround.

The mix on this continues to impress–Truly Transcendent! 1969 sounds mighty fine!

I've definitely given this release short shrift

And that's too bad–it's really quite good, and the hope i expressed in this REVIEW has been realized: the songs continue to reveal!
