4.9 Summary table

The following table refers to the use of active stacks.

SYSTEM

APPLICATION AND USE 

COVERAGE  

AND DISTANCE 

REMARKS

UT Active Stack 

1_1_mono

A) Placed at the back of the stage 

(works as both a monitor and a P.A.)

Jazz/Unplugged music/Jam session

Rock/Blues indoor 

(only voice amplification)

Stage width:  

4-5 m

Maximum distance of 

the furthest listener: 

16 m

A slightly angled and off-centred position can optimize the stage 

coverage.

Dedicated amplifiers for acoustic bass/contrabass are not required

B) Placed at the front of the stage 

     (main P.A.)

/

Strictly not recommended

C) Portable system for deejays 

     and entertainers

40 sqm

Position in a corner of a square dance floor and direct at 45°

UT Active Stack 

1_1 stereo

A) Placed at the back of the stage 

(works as both a monitor and a P.A.)

Jazz/Unplugged music/Jam session

Stage width: 

7-8 m

Maximum distance of 

the furthest listener: 

24 m

Join up the tracking directions, possibly cross them in the middle of 

the room until a correct coverage of the stage is obtained.

Dedicated amplifiers for acoustic bass/double bass are not required

B) Placed at the front of the stage 

     (main P.A.)

Jazz/Unplugged music

Rock/Blues indoor

Maximum distance of 

the furthest listener:

24 m

Evaluate the tracking directions based on the width of the audience 

stall. Lower front-fill requirement as compared to standard systems

C) Portable system for deejays 

and entertainers

80 sqm

Position in a corner of a square dance floor and direct at 45° 

UT Active Stack 

2_1_mono

A) Placed at the back of the stage 

(works as both a monitor and a P.A.)

Jazz/Unplugged music /Jam session

Rock/Blues indoor 

(only voice amplification)

Stage width: 

5-6 m

Maximum distance of 

the furthest listener: 

24 m

A slightly angled and off-centred position can optimize coverage of 

the stage.

Dedicated amplifiers for acoustic bass/double bass are not required.  

As compared to the 

Active Stack 1_1_mono

:

- increased range, especially with a large standing audience;

- better listening for musicians in near and lateral positions (i.e. drums);

- vertically more extended sound field (musicians sitting 

  and/or sloping audience stalls);

- increased medium-low frequency dynamics.

B) Placed at the front of the stage 

     (main P.A.)

/

Strictly not recommended

UT Active Stack 

2_1_stereo

A) Placed at the back of the stage 

(works as both a monitor and a P.A.)

Jazz/Unplugged music/Jam session

 

Stage width: 

8-10 m

Maximum distance of 

the furthest listener: 

32 m

Join up the tracking directions, possibly cross them in the middle of 

the room until a correct coverage of the stage is obtained.

Advantages as compared to the 

Active Stack 1_1_stereo

:

- increased range, especially with a large standing audience;

- better listening for musicians in near and lateral positions (i.e. drums);

- vertically more extended sound field (musicians sitting 

  and/or sloping audience stalls);

- increased medium-low frequencies dynamics.

B) Placed at the front of the stage 

     (main P.A.) 

Jazz/Unplugged music

Rock/Blues indoor

 

Stage width: 

9-12 m

Maximum distance of 

the furthest listener: 

32 m

      

Evaluate the tracking direction based on the width of the audience 

stall. Lower front-fill requirement as compared to standard systems.  

Advantages as compared to 

Active Stack 1_1_stereo

:

- increased range, especially with a large standing audience;

- vertically more extended sound field (public sitting and sloping 

  audience stalls);

- increased medium-low frequencies dynamics.
