- In this video, we walk you through the Deity PR-2 and the peripherals launching alongside it. Whether you are recording in the field or on a studio set, Deity has the solution to your shooting needs.
The Deity PR-2 Pocket Recorder comes equipped with a locking 3.5mm stereo mic / stereo line input. This feature allows for versatility in audio recording, which is essential for capturing sound in a variety of settings, such as tapping a mixing board for a feed at a wedding, directly recording a lavalier microphone, or even mounting it to a 3.5mm video mic for a portable shotgun setup.
The PR-2 pocket recorder supports 24-bit and 32-bit float recording formats, which means that you can always achieve perfect gain staging. The 32-bit float is an excellent feature that ensures that you won't clip your audio, even if you record too hot. This feature is especially handy if you're recording in a live setting where you don't have the luxury of being able to monitor your levels constantly.
The PR-2 Pocket Recorder can wirelessly sync timecode from the Deity TC-1 timecode generator boxes, which is a great feature for easily adding timecode metadata to your WAV files. This will allow your audio to be synced up in post to your video footage more easily and significantly quicker, saving you time and money. Additionally, the PR-2 is remote-controlled via the Sidus Audio™ app, which allows for every setting to be adjusted from up to 250ft away. This feature is especially useful if you need to make changes to your recording setup quickly from a long distance.

Well done Deity! This looks like an excellent product. 😄
Is it possible to purchase the PR-2 (global version) from the DEITY online store?
I live in Japan, but there is no store where I can purchase it.
Yeah, been waiting for this one. Love the accessories too. Ordering soon...
Awesome. Was waiting for this.
Could I use it with Blackmagic 6K G2 for Timecode sync?
Does it work with Blackmagic Cam on iPhone 15 and 16 Pro, like the TENTACLE TRACK E does?
Is the LTC 3v only used for Jam Syncing? Or is it able to put out a timecode signal on the left channel to the mic input on the camera?
Like the A-Out Mode on my TC-1.
Only used for Jam syncing. Think of the PR-2 as an audio recorder first, and it happens to be a spare TC box. The TC-1 still handles unique timecode workflows better.
Can’t wait! When will this be available to us in the rest of the world?
For the most part, they already are. Contact your local dealer to order them for you if they haven't already.
Hello Deity! Looking at the spec saying can take it "Line level signals"
Does that mean I can record audio from Audio mixer sending out line level signal with a "XLR>TRS 3.5mm" cable into Deity PR-2??
It absolutely needs better housing that can attach it to a camera rig or a shotgun mic. Like any type of cage with a 1/4 screw is going to do. Someone will beat you guys to it. I literally am currently taping the thing to my rig to have a shotgun mic connect….
These lav mic recorders where they continuously record a person for as long as they are turned on make me nervous.
For a wedding "... Letting them go and capturing reality." Just imagine a future in-law's private comments might be if they actively dislike the bride/groom. Then then the comments get used as embarrassing funny moments in the wedding video that poisons the in-law relationship forever.
At a business conference there might be sensitive business conversations with proprietary insider information...
You guys should do a series of videos called something like "To It's Limits" where you bring filmmakers in and they try to push a device to it's absolute max before it gives out, breaks, or quality drops off.
Do you have devices that can record 32 bit float stereo? I want to use it in a binaural setup without worrying about clipping.....
What’s the difference between the US and regular version?
So dope. Awesome. Thanks for sharing.
I want to buy this thing.. but the specs are SUPER ambiguous. What do you mean it's "capable of handling a stereo signal?" Does that mean A) I can plug a 7mm STEREO jack in there and get 2 clean channels of 32bit float audio recording? OR -B) is this the typical tricky language used by companies like Rhode, and this thing will need some other device to be used in combo in order to achieve stereo recording?
The PR-2 allows you to use a stereo connection but only 24-bit is available in this mode. 32-bit float can only be used with a mono connection.
Ele tem em linguagem PT BR? 🇧🇷
What do you mean by operating as an audio interface device?
Connect to computer
New to the world of audio here. Could this be used as a wireless mic if there was some kind of pairing receiver? Or is this really meant only for recording? Thanks!
Only meant for recording
I would love to see an actual user guide that shows how to set up and these in different scenarios.
It does not allow stereo on 32 bit, be clear and dont try to deceive people
This is great but... Why the TC-1 is not AA battery user friendly like this?
Hi there. I own a THEOS Digital Wireless system for two speakers, feeding them into a Lumix S5IIX using the 4-channel XLR-1 accessory via the provided 3.5mm-XLR cables. I also own three TC-1 units, with one feeding the 4th channel of the S5IIX's video file with audio timecode from a TC-1. I want the PR-2 to record audio from the facility's console, but it needs to be time-synced with the rest of my setup. What's the proper workflow and what accessories do I need to get XLR audio from the console in 32-bit mono with audio timecode? I am a bit confused. Thank you.
Would really love to know answers to these questions:
1. Can I listen to multiple lavs on my phone at the same time?
2. What's the max distance from the device to the phone I can be and still monitor.
3. How many phones can be monitoring? Say if I want to have the director, multiple clients, etc listening through mobile, is that possible?
Where does the Deity online store ship from because there is no mention of duties and taxes. Will the UPS Ground ship from the USA? Thanks!
Thank Andrew for this INFORMATIVE vide.
how do you reduce audio bleed when using Lav mics for a podcast of 4 people?
Ussually mic placement and selecting icrophones that have directional pickup patterns.
I love my PR2's. 3 things I wish could be changed though. I've had a few instances where the record button has been activated in the talent's pocket. Luckily it was turned on by accident but never turned off by accident while I needed to be recording. Another issue is the belt clip. It is very hard to open and put on anything other than a hard leather belt. I feel like a hinged spring belt clip with a guard that wraps around the front to cover the record button would solve both issues. The other problem I've had is with the lav clips. It is very easy for the mic cord to get pulled out of the lav clip. On a recent shoot this happened and it ruined a take. It would also be great to have a less expensive package of these packs that doesn't include the lav mics. I think many of us already have a pile of decent lav mics that will work great with the PR2.
Regarding the turning on in a persons pocket, triple tap the power button and it will lock the buttons and knob so it can't accidently be turned on/off.
As for the other issues, we'll bring them up with the engineers.
@@DeityMicrophones I didn’t know that but will be using the lock from now on. Thank you for the reply!
Some images show a plastic belt clip and others a metal one. Which will it be in the shipped units?
it ships with a plastic belt clip. The metal belt clip were from earlier models before production. Where did you see a metal clip being advertised? We would love to correct it with the reseller
Super excited need to get one.
Wow, I can plugin TC-1 via USB-C to Osmo Pocket 3 and it keeps receiving time code?
Yes
Yes. You will want to use the Deity C21 cable.
Amazing product! I hope that Deity make a recorder & transmitter version of this device and a reciber with hotshoe digital connection to Sony. (Edit: I know this is a Tascam direct Anwer for pro Weddings and online Clases, but it will be nice have 32bit float recording, transmitting and timecode at same time (it’s stereo so you can make it happen))
We already do, Google Deity THEOS
Is the housing metal or is it made of plastic of some kind?
Plastic
That’s great that you can power off USB as well as internal AA. If using NiMH rechargeable AA, can you charge using USB?
The PR-2 can not recharge NiMH batteries. You'd still need to use a dedicated battery charger for that.
Can it record stereo signal in 32 bit float?
@@i24p71 no
Insane!! correct me if I'm wrong, when you connect it to the camera to have security audio, can you have timecode on one of the two channels as well? that would be great!
no. You'd only connect it to a camera when you want to use it as a dedicated timecode box.
Can you confirm when it'll be available in the UK, and what the battery life is like with regular rechargeable AA (e.g. eneloop pro)?
Expect about 20hrs.
So I can use the PR-2 to set the timecode on a Sony FX6?
@@MattBrandon yup
@@DeityMicrophones One last question, can it set the timecode on a Zoom f3? I really do not want to us the Atomos system.
@@MattBrandon no
I never got my SD Card bro. Is it because Im in Canada? hook the brother up bro. lol
Its in the device already, pre-installed in the battery compartment.
@@DeityMicrophones Say whaat, that was slick! I went to enter in a new one and there it was! Thanks brother!
@@maroonsgatesporoductions9510 we should start a vegas magic act
@@DeityMicrophones totally in! haha
can I use the PR-2 to record and somehow use the TC-1 to get Timecode into an iPhone 15 Pro Max and preferably use the regular Apple iOS video recording software? Alternatively the BlackMagic software? (This would leave options to expand to use Zoom recorders with the TC-1 in future)
Yes. That would work. You could use Deity C21, a 3.5mm to USB-C cable that would act as a USB Audio Interface on your iPhone 15 Pro Max, so you'd end up recording the TC as audio on your iPhone file. You'd set the TC-1 to A-Out so you don't overload the ADC chip in C21's USB-C connector.
@@DeityMicrophones thank you
Excited to add this to the kit. Will it work with the V-Link cable or any female XLR to 3.5mm cable for my shotgun mic with a battery that has phantom power? Or would waiting for the DLTX be my option? Great products and keep it up!
Yes. If you have a shotgun with a battery, this will record it. You'd just need a female XLR to 3.5mm cable.
@@DeityMicrophones aaaaand ordered! Thanks for the quick response!
Binaural?
if you want
@@DeityMicrophones Interesting
32 bit is for mono ans 24 bit for stereo ?
Correct. Or you could do 24-Bit Mono with a limiter if you want.
Hang on are you saying 32 bit is only available when recording in mono? I have been waiting for this as the first tiny 32 bit stereo recorder for field recording...
@@douglaslangley6703 Yes, only 32-bit in mono mode
I was also going to comment on this point. I was hoping to be able to record 32-bit stereo :(
"Recording Bit-Depth: 32-bit Float Mono / 24-bit (Mono/Stereo)"
@@encosionmaybe a firmware update will change that. Hopefully for those that need it.
So can this now record audio and output timecode at the same time?
No. The 3V signal would bleed and you'd hear it in the recording. So you'd only want to output TC at the beginning of your shoot when yo are setting up all your gear and then turn it off so you can use the PR-2 as your audio recorder
can i use input like LINE IN? can i synh timecode with sony a7 iv?
1) Yes. The PR-2 can accept a line level input
2) You can timecode sync your a7 iv using our Sony timecode adapter cable, C23.
@@DeityMicrophones it’s great 👍
@@DeityMicrophoneshello, what the maximun input level?
