Nicely explained mate as per usual. It's a welcome program tried and tested with the mighty D to great effect. Its nice the D2 has so many preset programs and great XP incorporated the Mono which enables users to replicate the Sonar. Catch you soon.

[@The-skillschool]

Cheers Paul, we have proved many times that the Sonar program is unbeatable on your ancient sites.

just been out with this programm today and must say i was really getting into it i loved the way i was reading the ground unfortunally no finds of relivance with it yet lacking depth a tiny bit even with sens 99 and reactivity dropped down but still a good depth but when switching to my other programms i decided i love the feedback from this mode other my other programs i need to work on this profile see if i can get slightly more depth but really loved it i wish i had found somthing nice with it as i would probably feel liek i dont need to alter it

D2 also adds a few enhancements like frequency scan to these great D1 programs.

[@Vince1648]

My personal fav settings in a single freq mode are: Freq at around 25. Full tones, disc at zero. I want to hear all the iron, but not the ground noise. Silencer at 1, reactivity between 1,5 and 3, depending on the amount of (iron)trash. So far never felt the need to go faster than 3. I find that full tones is smoother and more clear in a single freq mode, as opposed to the SMF mode. I would love it when XP would bring a small elliptical coil for the D2, same size like the elliptical HF for the D1. 👍

[@daveh4777]

Gary excellent video as always well done 👍 I’m really pleased you did this video on the Deus mono, it certainly does have its use especially in high EMI areas, I’ve been using it lots,,, as one of my favourite sites has a mobile phone/TV transmitter beside it, so mono is perfect for this type of environment. I especially love the fact that you can change the GB value in mono so easily,, my one wish is that the XP engineer’s could allow these changes also to the multi frequency programs as well,,,, the iron unmasking capabilities are so much better even set at 85 GB as opposed to the factory default of 87, In my opinion this would take the Deus II to an even higher level than it is now? Thanks again, regards. Dave.

Hello Gary,,, I’ve been trying this program for several days,,,, one question,, is it my imagination or doesn’t the silencer work whilst using Sonar on the D2,, I’ve found that setting between 0 & 4 appears to make no difference.,,, thanks. Dave.

[@DetectDigSmile]

Good video. It is great to see the kids out picking up the hobby. I love to take my girls out with me. My daughter just found her first silver ring and wheat penny. So 17K is a good coin frequency for the Deus 2?

[@The-skillschool]

Thanks for watching, yes 17khz is good for coins.

[@Findingwithfrequency]

I found that with single frequency sometimes you can find targets that multi-frequency will not find and will act like it isn't there 👍🦀

[@oldplucker1]

Hi Gary, a few suggestions having recently bought a D2 because of the Fast Multi Frequency and lightness. The good stuff is near habitation but so is the EMI. The D2 is very susceptible to EMI hence this video I would think. There are only 7 frequency shifts compared to 19 on the Nox. Also the interference is much faster than normal signals in very fast audio pulses so should be possible to remove or smooth out. Has XP missed a trick there?. That would make a big difference. Also by moving Discrimination below zero, tones can be set below zero which is a good feature. But It would also be useful to notch below zero too. Multi notch also confusingly labels the notch points as T.Break ? I thought the individual tone loudness could be controlled like on the Nox but can’t find a way. Any help on that one? Cheers 👍

[@The-skillschool]

Thanks for your thoughts

[@maconthelt6963]

What benefit is there to discriminating to -6.4 and then setting second tone break at 9? What makes that any different than using 2 tone and just setting the disc to 9?

[@The-skillschool]

Thanks for your thoughts. For some reason it makes the machine more dynamic, perhaps it bypasses some filtering used with discrimination

[@searchingshropshire]

Also you can copy all the Deus 1 base programs like GMP or GMAXX and bring them to the Deus 2.

[@The-skillschool]

Good call SS 👍

[@searchingshropshire]

[@neilstorey5242]

Thanks Gary. I use the Deus using the hot program because of all the info and feedback it gives. Sometimes I'll try out a different prog but most times have gone back to 'hot' before the end of the session. Does the Deus 2 have a multi-frequency 'hot' equivalent? Can the single-frequency hot program be created within Mono and if so could we see it in action please? Thanks, ATB.

[@The-skillschool]

Thanks Neil Sensitive FT is similar to the Hot program. Yes you can install the original got into Deus Mono.

[@jerrytalley802]

Gary, if they missed a target the size of a watch, that’s a good sign. You still like full tones or does Deus 2 still have some issues with full tones?

[@The-skillschool]

Full tones is OK on some sites.

[@stuartbibby4415]

Yust my thoughts on single and multi frequency, multiple frequency running at the same time is a bit misleading, it starts with a dominent frequency followed by a logarithms, the old minelabs explorer etc, started with low dominent frequency, given the impression they were deeper, equinox runs quite the opposite high first, no dought great beach machines, but to jumbled for the old medieval or roman sites, its horses for courses gary, thats why i still use multiple machines have done for over 40 years, best detectorists need the ground feed back, signals can be very breif at best, no single frequency won't be finesd not by me, and neither will multi, keep up your promotion of such a great hobby, cheers best regards Stuart tired old detectorist

Why tone break 9 ? Could it eliminate coke if set it to 25 cheers for the great video

[@The-skillschool]

[@brillero2356]

personally after many tests I believe that the mono program on the deus 2 is less effective than the multi frequency programs ... I have not yet found a context where the mono program makes a difference, in terms of depth it is less deep with any frequency, even in the separation in the middle of iron or garbage is less effective than multi-frequency programs and this is really strange .... maybe I'm wrong ... but in what research context can the mono program make a difference?

[@The-skillschool]

As I mentioned in the video, Mono can be better for allowing ground feedback. On this type of site, depth is not important. Glad to hear you are enjoying the D2.

[@brillero2356]

@@The-skillschool ground feedback is important but we need an extra "gear" to find good targets and the mono program doesn't seem to make a difference on the deus 2 ... for me it performs better with multi-frequency programs, the depth is just one of the advantages of multi-frequency programs
