I really enjoy that you don't yell at me during your reviews or talk like a Sim. They're so chill yet very informative.
I've had my eye on the Theos system ever since it was announced, thanks for confirming that it is as awesome as I hoped!
Appreciate you watching!
@@TylerEdwards hey pal I’ve been watching your channel for a while… thanks for all the tips and advice you’ve been given.. I shoot music videos for right now I have a fx30 should I invest in cinema glass like the new Cooke sp3’s and or the new atlas lens? Or should I save up and get a red Komodo or the k’x? I’ve been seeing red footage it looks so good…
Dude I have had my eye on these thanks so much for making a review!
🙌 appreciate you watching!
Great review, thanks for the honest and straightforward approach. Just subscribed!
Thank you and welcome! Glad to have you on board!
Hey Tyler, just wanted to say that I appreciate youre humble style.
Thank you Joel!
Thanks for the video!
Glad it was helpful!
Great video! Sounded awesome.
Thanks!
Great review mate! 💪
Thanks dude!!
Nice video! Hoping to get a closer look at these as well!
Thank you!
Thanks for the review of the THEOS. I am very impressed and have ordered 2 sets thru B&H.
Great to hear! It is a great system
I'm using the RODE Wireless Pro at the moment and the Deity Theos resolves most of the complaints that I have of the Wireless Pro (unique file names based on transmitter name, timecode sync to TC-1s rather than acting as a master clock, replaceable batteries). There are a lot of pluses for the Wireless Pro, though. The biggest flaw of the Wireless Pro is its 2.4 GHz frequency that will get clobbered in a busy location (making the on-board audio recording essential). Wireless Pro also has the price-point advantage. Thanks for the review, Tyler.
Those wireless devices are great for some use cases, but systems like theos are superior for sure in quality, usability and reliability
Thanks Tyler, I’m actually looking for such a setup.
I use tentacle for TC so is there a way to jam tc into the deity Theos when using tentacle sync ?
Edit: just saw you answered the question later in the video ha ha 😂
Yes you can jam from tentacle units into theos packs! Here is how: ua-cam.com/video/BIRwiID5-HU/v-deo.htmlsi=4v7SzTtYVn-Lhy_L
Thank you for sharing!, can be use with any lavaliere mic ? For example DPA or Countryman ? Thank you
There is a 3V and 5V power option so if those mics fall into that requirement (which I think they do) you should be good to go. My COS-11D uses 5V and pros perfectly.
Excelent job here. Very humble approach, yet a surprisingly deep dive into this. Do you think that it lends itself to multiple units so that you could use it on a shoot with 4 subjects?
Thank you! The transmitter supports two receivers, so for 4 subjects, you need two systems.
understood, my question is more about how easy it is to manage multiple recievers in the audio software as far as scanning ,naming, audio file management etc, does it agregate a multichannel system together and let you manage an 8 channel system for example. If it does its an absolute killer. Thanks!@@TylerEdwards
Funny, I did not read youre comment and i choosed the word humble too. =)
Hey Josh, simply: yes - you can manage up to 20 devices at a time in Sidus Audio. That includes dedicated timecode gear like TC-1s and TC-SL1s but even with a few of each, you'll have plenty of space for an 8 channel system.@@joshheineman4245
Tyler Edwards, THANK YOU for testing the Deity Theos with a third-party mic. Do you perceive a difference in sound quality between the SANKEN COS 11D and the W-LAV PRO? do you prefer one mic over the other?
I can definitely tell a difference and they’re both great sounding mics in my opinion. The deity mic is a bit brighter to my ears, but that’s not a bad thing because I like hiding mics and that brighter sound gets a little more balanced when hidden under a shirt in my experience. Overall though, I still prefer the Sanken. It has a more full sound to my ears with a little more low end response
@@TylerEdwards Thanks that's good to know. Sanken sounds audibly better in your test to my ears. I wish someone would test a Sennheiser lav and a DPA lav on the Theos. I don't like how the w-lav pro sounds.
Deity theos connect 1.1 crapped my shoot just like connect did 4-5yr ago. I regret getting it
Great review thx. The inability to record and send at the same time is the deal breaker for me.
that is only for the US to be clear. your only other option really is to get a zaxcom unit since they hold the patent but that is significantly more expensive. even lectrosonics can't do that and they are industry standard.
@@TylerEdwards Fair point about Lectrosonics..! Thx for the reply.
The Deity Theos looks like a pretty good wireless system. I do have several comments to make. I think you can do as well with quality, but at a better price point, that's not saying anything negative about quality. The second point is the actual microphones offered with the system. Let's assume quality mics, but they should be cardiod to reduce ambient noise. That is the reason you are using wireless instead of a shotgun mic. The third point is that they don't include an adapter cable so that XLR connectors can be used. You might have to plug a mixer into the body pack.
When doing High School sports we used a Samson wireless system and made an adapter cord to plug in a Sure mic mixer. That's how we got the audio from the stadium or field back to the truck so it could be microwaved back to the studio. Also this adapter cord allowed us to use standard mics for remotes and other events. If they want me to test out the system, they can send me a unit, but I am assuming it's a quality system.
Does it work with the MKE2?
I haven’t tested that mic but I know it’s a power hungry mic. If I were to guess, it wouldn’t be the best mic for this system.
From what I understand, in the USA, you can't both transmit wirelessly AND record internally at the same time. Apoloies in advance if I am wrong.
Correct due to a patent
