Overview
The Deity Microphones PR-2ii 32-Bit Float Pocket Audio Recorder with Lavalier Mic is a wearable-first recorder built for videographers, small crews and creators who cannot afford to lose audio to wireless signal issues. It combines 32-bit float recording, a new cleaner dual-ADC preamp, 20+ hours of battery life, wired and wireless timecode, and Sidus Audio remote control in one pocket-sized tool.
Dual-ADC Preamp for Cleaner Audio
PR-2ii's dual-ADC preamp architecture delivers lower self-noise and greater dynamic range, helping quiet dialogue stay detailed while sudden loud moments remain recoverable in 32-bit float. With an internal-recording dynamic range of 124 dB or higher and an EIN rated at -117 dBV (A-weighted, 36 dB gain, 150 ohm source), PR-2ii captures cleaner, more detailed sound across demanding production environments, whether you're working in stereo 24-bit or mono 32-bit float.
PSRAM-Backed Recording Protection
When the recorder is hidden on talent or planted out of reach, an interrupted file can turn into an expensive reshoot. PR-2ii combines PSRAM-backed audio buffering with Deity's recording protection to help preserve usable audio when a recording is unexpectedly interrupted or a file is corrupted.
IP54-Rated, Built for Location Work
Recorders are often placed where the operator cannot constantly protect them: hidden under wardrobe, planted inside a vehicle, mounted on a camera rig, or working outdoors. PR-2ii's IP54-rated enclosure helps resist dust and splashes so it can keep working through changing weather, sweat and the everyday abuse of location production, with a new rubber gasket seal added around the battery compartment. A tougher 6H tempered-glass screen cover and button-based controls create a stronger face than the previous model.
Fast Setup, Clean Audio
PR-2ii helps crews move from setup to a clean recording with less technical friction.
- Built-in gain presets for popular lavaliers, including DPA 4060/4061, Sennheiser MKE 2, Countryman B3 and Shure TL47, provide a practical starting level fast
- One-touch recording, 75 Hz and 150 Hz low-cut filters and a soft-knee limiter help stabilize audio in changing environments
- Intelligent noise reduction gives a more forgiving path to usable sound for smaller crews
- A sunlight-visible 600-nit color display, dedicated record button, and clear battery, recording and timecode status make fast checks easier on chaotic shoots
- Pre-recording captures the moment before you press record, while mark points make important takes faster to find later
- Rec mode, track, input and output are all visible on one screen
Sidus Audio App Control
When PR-2ii is on talent or planted somewhere you cannot reach, the Sidus Audio app brings the recorder back to you. Start and stop recording, check status, adjust key settings, and monitor over Bluetooth from a supported iOS or Android device, without reaching under wardrobe or interrupting a take.
Wired and USB Timecode Support
The 3.5mm connection can bring timecode in or send it out during recording, including LTC and ATC workflows for cameras and other production gear. Timecode can also be output via USB-C, compatible with XTRA, DJI and Insta360 cameras.
Storage, Transfer and Compatibility
PR-2ii records to microSD cards up to 1TB in industry-standard BWF WAV format, with large files automatically segmented at approximately 4GB for easy handling. The USB-C port doubles as a USB Audio Class 2.0 compliant audio interface, so PR-2ii can plug straight into a computer as a 48kHz, 24-bit, 2-channel audio input without extra drivers.
