Using the Deep Programme with XP Deus Lite - Metal Detecting UK 2022

How to use the Deep Programme with the XP Deus Lite - Metal Detecting UK 2022 - DON'T! I finally get round, in this video, to demonstrating why I do not use the Deep programme with the XP Deus Lite.... I find it very unsatisfactory though that is not to say it doesn't suit some people with the full XP Deus set up.

Full Deus Users probably won't find this very useful but thank you for watching anyway!

Had my deus lite a few months now. This and the rest of your videos have been a great help. In fact, it was you and metal detecting 24 that inspired me to go for the deus in the first place 👍

[julianlucchesi]

So glad you do so well with your Lite. I used full Deus set up for many years, and sold it because I got sucked in to the D2 hype. Could get one, I purchased a used WS4 and 9" coil with my old GMP straight stem. A deadly combination on ancient sites. Well done you!

[williambarton]

Your exactly right, it’s about getting to use your ears and knowing the machine sounds which comes with time, if you have a remote the xy screen will identify coke easily as the signal is straight up and down

[timhenderson]

Very good comparison!! Hope all is well!!

[Notchedto]

Boy, you really do know and understand your machine Alexander - and a perfect demonstration why you do what you do! Totally right decision not moving up to Deus II in my opinion, and why should keep on that Hot programme! Good to see you mate, all the best!

[oldplucker]

I wear the controller on my arm so can have a look at the XY screen. But the way you id targets by ear is great. 👍👍

Never used a Deus yet, but this video has shown huge differences in different programs and shows the user needs to be able to distinguish between those sometimes subtle changes in tones
Great advice though with the deep program on a Deus lite
But anything that says its a deep program is going to enhance all signals and change their responses
Good educational video Alex, and shows your mastery of the Deus
More of these please as people often buy the expensive machines expecting them to tell them exactly what is below the coil, when the truth of it is also a huge chunk of experience is also needed

Very interesting video Alex. Thank you.

[mickdavis]

Great video Alex👍. I use the full set up so I can’t comment about that as coke comes in a vertices line on the x-y screen which is easy to see. My thoughts on the deep program are that although deeper signals are cleaner than on the Hot (lowered to 2.5 etc.) you can never really be sure that it’s not deep trash, so I also ignore the deep program until I get very desperate.
I managed two deep sceats and a hammered half penny on Sunday😲. Happy days👍

[glynn]

I agree with what you say. Thanks for another great video.

[JahDr]

I use the hot program 9 always and for your second target, sounded like a mid tone, i said was gonna be a button or a shotgun shell. At least i know my program 9😂. Great video btw

[gronkler]

Alex don't change the way you use your deus1 your completely in tune with it as it is. another great video roll on the next.👍

[pritteeboy]

Alex, I have to agree with you wholeheartedly. I actually have the Deus remote control but i used the Lite set up for 18 months before i added the remote to my arsenal, and, even now i mostly keep the remote in my pocket and go by the tones, mostly the very descriptive full tones in the Hot program, which like you i tend to use almost exclusively, lol, I don’t think there is much extra depth to be had with the Deep program or any of the other pre sets. The Hot programme is a killer when you are tuned into the extra tonal info it gives you. I never dig coke as once learned it gives a very distinctive sound, ok, there is the caveat that occasionally a hammered coin etc could conceivably ring in it at that same kinda tone/VDI, but i can live with that. I also lower the reactivity to 2.5 on pasture or slightly quieter sites and I find it goes plenty deep enough, especially if the soil is a little moist. The Hot Program is, for my money, the best thing about the Deus… and that’s saying something because it truly is a wonderful machine once you are familiar with it.


I genuinely love your extremely entertaining, informative and light hearted videos, Alex, keep up the good work!

PS: Tasky is a definite asset to your operation… 😂

[tomwheeler]

i have the ORX and being new to it all i have run it in deep and dug so much coke, it was good to hear and learn the sound of coke, and ill use coin fast from now on

[thekingstone]

Hi Ally, you are in a beautiful setting there in North Wales, great to see you out detecting..but I have to admit to not knowing anything about settings & tones etc...whenever we get a chance to take our ancient " detector of shame " out over to the Allotments and woods all noises are dug up 😅🤣😆and they always mostly nails although there is a Victorian rubbish dump nearby and our plot neighbour has found a knapped flint and there are many Sarcen Stones buried in the beds...Great field where you are, love &Blessings xxxShaz xxx

[jessestone]

Informative video I agree sound wise the hot program sound wise is the best.

[anthonystanbury]

I'm slowly catching up with your posts Alexander and I'm learning many tips and hints concerning the Deus. I will always be a minelab fan and use the mighty but heavy CTX3030. Since I am heading into my dotage I'd like a lighter but powerful machine hence my purchase.

[goldseaoutdoors]

very good information mate thanks for showing happy hunting

[beepdigsplosh]

Great advise I tried that deep program and found the same everything gives a great signal
