XP Deus 1 my secret settings

Join Gary in the field hunting for Roman coins and see what custom settings he is using with his XP Deus 1

[@Detect-Oregon]

D1 will always be legendary to me, nice to see it in your hands again Gary.

[@The-skillschool]

Thank you my friend, it's always a pleasure to use the D1.

[@PennyVickers]

As soon as I got my Deus 1 I subscribed to this channel, I am still learning about the Deus I (bought it in 2014) and I have watched all Gary's videos, but I'm finding that I am slowly revisiting them because it is easy to become a little complacent with the programs, watching the videos again gives me a fresh look at the machine and I'm finding that my 'finds' have improved. Thanks Gary

[@The-skillschool]

Thanks for your support, please share my videos whenever you can, it really helps the channel.

[@paulbancroft3817]

Excellent searching mate. Nice to see the D1 out n about on these fields. Great explanation of your settings 👌

[@The-skillschool]

Thanks Paul 🤝👍

I LOVE your example fields lol! Amazing Finds. So glad you did a xp deus video again! Thank you for the settings!

[@andrewmerriman2963]

I can't speak for the relic hunters out there but I can say that the deus 1 v.5.2 with the X35 coils are 'coin and jewelry' perfection! I have the 9, 11, and elliptical coil that covers all scenarios and ground conditions. I use 17, 25, and 31k with various versions of hot and 4 tone fast platforms that take me and my machine to a whole new level. So a big shout-out to Deus and Gary Blackwell for giving all of us techno-nerds and detectorist many years of quality enjoyment and higher detecting skills.

[@The-skillschool]

Thanks for your thoughts Andrew and your continued support 🤝

[@SteveGruner-t4b]

Will be giving this a go Tomorrow in North East Victoria Australia , Thanks Gary

[@The-skillschool]

Good luck, keep us posted 👍

[@SteveGruner-t4b]

Had a go with the Hot 2 program and got a signal in very very hard ground , no signal with the normal hot program . Dug down about 150 mm and uncovered a brass buckle , also got a coin about 100 mm which was picked up by both hot programs . Looking forward going over old ground to see what might be deeper. Thanks again for the advice and Hot 2 program. @@The-skillschool

[@neilstorey5242]

Nice one Gary, thanks for the video. On my quiet-ish fields I usually go with -4.5 on discrimination which knocks out most of the ground noise. Good to see all those Romans flying out of the ground! 👍🏻

[@greyone8615]

Thank you Gary, your programs are wonderful. I used the sonar program, I’ll try hot 2 tomorrow. Today I found several coins from 1815 and 1800 with a sonar program on very metal-contaminated soil. Deus 1 is a super device.

[@The-skillschool]

Thanks Greyone good luck with the new settings

[@stevedarcy9542]

Awesome video as always Gary. Thanks for the settings mate, definitely going to give it a try, haven’t used my deus 1 for months, thanks Gary for sharing.

Settings @ 9:00 ... Thanks a lot Gary! I'll be out with my old D1 pretty soon, (and that's my coil too!! 🤩) - I've tried 'Hot over Deep' before, but pretty sure you have some extra little nuances here, eg. the Fq. and Descr. - Anyways, can't wait to try this one mate, and thanks 🙏 as ever for the great videos!...

[@jerrytalley802]

Gary, It may just be me, but I still can’t match the depth of my xp Deus 1 with the 3.2 software in good ground. I attempted to film a deep civil war bullet trying to hold a phone in one hand then finish digging with the other. I see people digging holes at pinpointer depth saying how deep they are. I filmed a measured 16-17” deep bullet that was so deep, I thought it was a Belt buckle in a trench bottom. So far, I can’t get within 3-5 inches on my Deus 2 of my first Deus 1 and 3.2. I still have 2 of coils, need to find a cheap Deus one, set up 3.2 and try it again. The Deus one handled EMI Sooo much better as well. Thanks for all you do.

[@The-skillschool]

Great info Jerry, I have no doubt in my mind the Deus 2 has more depth capabilities. But if you prefer the D1, it's all good.👍

[@aia3294]

Hi Gary! Thanks for the informative videos! I have a 9" x35, in your experience, would it be wise to sell it and buy an hf?

[@The-skillschool]

No it's still a good coil.

[@kellystewart8360]

Great video Gary. I love my Deus I. I have not been able to afford to upgrade to a Deus II yet. My question is I see that they have bone induction headphones for the Deus II, do they have plans of making them to fit the Deus I, and the Orx? I hunt in the mountains here a lot and we have a lot of rattlesnakes so I don't like to use headphones there, but the bone induction headphones seem like they may be perfect for those places. Also, my tinnitus is very extreme now and I think it is too much wearing the backphones? Thank you for your professional videos and advise.

[@The-skillschool]

Thanks for your question, I don't think they will for the D1 and ORX. Some years ago I tried some Bluetooth sports B/C headphones with a 3.5mm dongle and they worked well on the D1.

[@kellystewart8360]

Thank you Gary. I will look into getting a setup like you mentioned.+@@The-skillschool

[@hobonickel840]

Thank you for your dedication to this great hobby and insights.. I have the original coil that came with deus 1 ...is it worth picking up any of the hf coils?

[@The-skillschool]

Personally I think the round HF coil is the best.

[@hobonickel840]

@@The-skillschool Thank ya .. is that the hf 9.5" round hf coil?

[@The-skillschool]

@hobonickel840 yes

[@colonialking7470]

Hi Gary, i noticed that you mentioned the ground there was troublesome,would ground balancing of helped in quieting the machine? I know a lot of times you use 88 for nonmineralized soil.I understand the logic in raising disc to 3 silencing small iron.Maybe you did GB the machine but didn't show it.Thanks for taking the time to make these videos and provide tech support to deus users.

[@The-skillschool]

Thanks for your thoughts, ground balancing on our damp soil makes the machine over sensitive. But I hear what you are saying, perhaps it's worth ground balancing and lowering the sensitivity.

[@colonialking7470]

Thanks for the feedback ,we have a place here in Culpepper Virginia where targets are deep and in mineralized soil.I may try your deep program variation with set g.b. or Goldfield mode which i like.A lot of users are using expensive pulse machines for this particular soil,i don't hunt there enough to purchase an expensive pulse machine.

[@The-skillschool]

Goldfield is a good choice

[@renevandenbosch7350]

I have the old 28 coil works thath of the secret program.gread video garry

[@The-skillschool]

Sure just use 17Khz

[@lukefairey1560]

Great vid Gary ... could you do a similar program on the deus 2 ?

[@The-skillschool]

It wouldn't be the same in FMF, perhaps it will be better. I will give it a try.

[@Wickedwitch_kz]

Just as mine settings,Gary.The only different thing is that i prefer ( -2 ) discrimination and my land allows 86-87 ground balance.Perfect settings,love hot ot deep program.Chears , Gary and take care ❤🍀

Best tones ever made on a detector💥

[@tdwilcox]

Just got my new Deus 1 today. I have pounded my yard over the years, and tonight, I had to give up because I had so many good targets. New 9 HF elliptical coming Tuesday.

[@The-skillschool]

The D1 is a great machine, thanks for your feedback. 🤝👍

[@hovender5778]

Short question... Can i Put the Sens to high to serch for hammered silver, Cut half and Cut quarters? In my mind i was thinking smaller coins Higher Sens... But when i saw an video about an other detektor my thaugts where changing... In this video(yes it was en air Test OK) the other detektor was Put to max Sens and a Cut half between two nails (Tip to the coin,heads away from it) and the detektor only was gettin between the nails as the User dropped the Sens in the upper 2/3 of the Sens. (My detektor deus1, 9 Inch x35 coil) i would do the Test on my own but i dont have an Cut half to Test it

[@The-skillschool]

The sensitivity does not relate to the coins. It should be set as high as possible, what number depends on soil what the conditions will allow.

[@Wickedwitch_kz]

Hey,Gary! I have watched your new video for d1 with hot program settings,what's the difference between this one and hot program with almost same settings? Which one is better?Cheers and greeting from Bulgaria!

[@The-skillschool]

Check the video with your machine settings.

[@darylcurtis-t9e]

can you use this on the x35 coil if you can what frequency would you run gary

[@The-skillschool]

X35....no problem, I would run the maximum around 25Khz 👍

[@TreborMDWL]

Hi mate, I funny enough made thus programme but used 5 tones and broke up my tones as I found a thin 15kt gold I wanted to enhance my sounds on curtain numbers. Which setting should my silencer be on? 0 or +1? Or what would you recommend? I'm using the 11inch x35 coil. Cheers mate love your videos

[@The-skillschool]

Thanks for the feedback, regarding the silencer, use 0 if possible but if you have false signals from lots of small round headed nails, raise it up.

[@TreborMDWL]

@@The-skillschool ah, brilliant il give +1 a go on next outing.

Hi Gary, Would you recommend these settings on the deus lite? and also are these settings ideal for ground that’s not producing much in way of targets.

Hi Michael give it a try and let me know.

Too good gary, thank you. Can we do this program with the deus 2 in multi frequency?

[@The-skillschool]

I think it will be different

[@UkuleleBobbyKemp]

Just a thought Weiss - you could try the 'closest ' equivalent to this, which is: Copy the Tones from Sensi FT and put them over Deep HC. Pretty sure I've tried this, but tbh. I mostly use a 'Maxed Out' version of Relic these days anyway... 😉🙏🏻

[@AndrewD-t1n]

I’ve just bought a Deus lite and just wanted to know if I need to ground balance?

[@The-skillschool]

Not normally in the UK

[@metaldetectingwales]

Funnily enough, that is the exact same settings I use most of the time, except if the ground is quiet with little iron I put the reactivity on 2.5

I’m getting a Deus 1 pretty soon, should I get the remote, or ok with just the headset??
