​1. The Power of "All Metal" & Audio Language

​Avoid Harsh Discrimination: The host strongly advises against using high discrimination settings because it "takes away the language of the detector" [10:06]. Running a detector wide open allows you to hear the iron and better understand the composition of the ground [09:00].

​Hunting in Iron: Harsh discrimination can actually worsen performance in iron-heavy fields [10:21]. The optimal approach is to keep discrimination off or set extremely low, making the iron tones quiet and low-pitched while keeping the audio path fully open [10:31].

​Locating Activity Hubs: Keeping the detector wide open helps you hear concentrations of iron. This iron usually signals past human activity, telling you exactly where you should slow down and hunt [15:47].

​2. Multi-Tone (60-Tone) Settings Strategy

​Identifying Shape via Audio: Instead of traditional coin shooting (where a single tone is assigned to a specific coin), the host favors a 60-tone setup [11:10]. The highly dynamic audio path makes it possible to determine the shape of a target rather than just its conductivity size [11:20]. A truly round target like a deep coin will sound solid with no wobble in the tone [03:24].

​The Gold Ring Trick: To avoid digging thousands of pieces of trash (like aluminum foil) while hunting for jewelry, the host recommends scanning your smallest gold ring to find its Target ID (VDI) number. Then, adjust your tone break three digits below that true ID number [11:10]. Because gold rings form a complete loop, they give off a distinct, stable mid-tone that you won't miss, while letting you ignore a large portion of jagged foil fragments [02:19].

​Depth Considerations: While multi-tone is excellent for shallow-to-medium targets, the Target ID and audio can fluctuate rapidly ("wobble") on the absolute fringe of detection [05:15]. For ultra-deep targets (9–10 inches), switching to a two-tone or VCO pitch mode can be more effective [05:30].

​3. Field Finds & Future Software Updates

​Throughout the hunt in an acidic woodland area—where fallen autumn leaves erode copper coins [04:07]—the host digs a variety of targets using these exact settings, including a heavily degraded older coin [03:49], several modern UK coins (1p, 2p, and 20p pieces) [04:53], and a few pull tabs.

​The host also mentions collaborating with Arkadiusz (Eric) from Rutus by sending over custom testing videos [06:03]. This feedback directly influences an upcoming software update designed to further improve the Versa's raw audio performance and un-discriminated depth in heavily mineralized ground and magnetite [01:07].
