I’d like to thank Nathan and the team at Wendy’s Broadcadst for all their help. They have been supplying me with custom cables, made to the highest standard over many year. The low profile connectors are hard to find, yet they normally ship the finished leads the day after ordering, often to studios or locations where I am filming and I’ve never had to ask for any adjustments or corrections; They are right first time, despite my requiring some unusual bespoke wiring. I’ve also benefited from real world advice about products and fault finding. Wendy’s Broadcast have made location sound far less stressful.
Two-input, two-track wearable field recorder
A wearable two-input, two-track recorder with 32-bit float capture, wired and wireless timecode, IP54 protection and more than 20 hours of stated battery life.
The Deity PR-2ii is designed as a compact safety recorder for location sound, documentary and production workflows. It records two inputs to two tracks in 24-bit integer or 32-bit float Broadcast WAV, with a dual-ADC signal path and a manufacturer-stated internal recording dynamic range of at least 124 dB.
The PR-2ii supports wired and wireless timecode, remote control through Sidus Audio, pre-record and mark points. A gasketed IP54 enclosure, two-AA power and a claimed 20+ hour runtime make it suitable for wearable deployment, while USB-C handles file transfer, audio-interface operation and USB timecode.
