Deity Theos DIFB - Digital IFB Receiver

Deity Theos DIFB - Digital IFB Receiver

The Deity Theos DIFB is a modern and intelligent wireless monitoring receiver (IFB, Interruptible Foldback) designed to provide directors, clients, producers and crew with a real-time and crystal-clear connection to the recording mixer. As part of the Deity Theos ecosystem, it utilizes the ultra-wideband digital UHF spectrum (550-960 MHz). This ensures an exceptionally reliable signal without interruptions, even in the presence of a large number of other wireless devices and electrical interference on set.

What does IFB mean in practice? It is the "ear" of the film crew. The director, scriptwriter or client can keep this small device in their pocket or on their belt and listen directly to what the microphones are recording with headphones. It makes communication easier and faster and ensures that everyone hears the dialogue perfectly even during filming.

• True Diversity Reception: Thanks to two separate SMA antennas, the device always picks up the strongest possible signal, minimizing dropouts.
• Smart GPS frequency adjustment: Using Global OneBand™ technology and your smartphone's GPS connection, the device automatically adapts to the official frequency regulations of each country and region.
• 20-channel memory bank: You can store up to 20 different preset frequencies on the device and quickly switch between them using the metal roller control – handy for productions where you are monitoring several different sound groups.
• Text-to-Speech: Since the device is often carried in a pocket or on a belt, it can read the selected channel or transmitter name directly into your headphones, so you don't have to dig out your device to see what channel you're listening to.
• Best-in-class battery life: Runs for up to 15-17 hours on high-quality lithium AA batteries, so you can easily power through even the longest shooting days.

Ergonomic and easy-to-use interface

The Deity DIFB is equipped with a clear and bright full-color LCD display, which makes browsing the menus effortless. The home screen always shows the current frequency and volume levels in real time. Switching between functions is easy by pressing the device's durable metal control wheel. The entire device is packed in a sturdy full-metal casing that can withstand the bumps of even the most demanding film and TV sets and the rigors of everyday life.

Through the Sidus Audio mobile app, you can perform frequency scans, manage channel libraries, and coordinate multiple receivers simultaneously, saving you significant time at the start of a shooting day.

Versatile and secure connectivity

For listening, the device features a standard, lockable 3.5mm headphone jack, ensuring that the headphone cable doesn't accidentally come loose during an important take or scene. In addition, the Deity DIFB also supports Bluetooth connectivity, so it can be used with many wireless Bluetooth headphones in addition to traditional wired headphones.
