It is hard to see which buttons you are pushing but with a few rewinds I was able to follow along. Thanks for the info on setting this new machine up for a quick first time out. Look forward to more on the Manticore.
I just received my manticore 24 hours ago. Your video presents a simple and easy interpretation of all the options available on this machine. Thanks very much!
Was totally frustrated with the machine untill I watched your video. What a difference now, the machine hums. It works great. It should be a required video before you try everyone else's tips In other words don't do anything until you watch this video. Thanks for your GREAT help
This is a good start. Only thing that would suggest is that it would have been nice had you lit up the lower buttons so I could tell which ones you were pressing to navigate around the screen. Thank you for the video.
Good stuff Mike. That color screen is rad, and the menu seems easy enough to navigate. Looks like a winner, especially if the coil ears and shaft hold up. It will be interesting to see how it stacks up once everybody gets it in their hands. Getting my popcorn ready...
@@Thesummerof2024. i like General and Fast, both act the same around the nails. I use 1 tone regional and a recovery of 5-6. Sensitivity 20 or less for relic hunting.
Thanks for this vid mate. Ive had mine since 1st week in January, but unable to get out with it due to either torn ligaments or worse in my hip. So 4 months on, i decided to do some air tests on coins/silver, but couldn't remember how to ground balance etc. You vid solved it, thanks mate! Gonna bite the bullet once this awful awful rain stops soaking our little UK 😉 . Oh, subbed..
I like those sound profile setups. One dislike I have with the Nox, although it is a great machine, was the fact that depth perception could be tough on some targets. That's why I like the D2 because I always listen for the whispery, slight tones at depth. Those profile settings got my interest peaked. Too bad my wife will murder me if I buy another $1600 detector! :D
Thanks. Can't wait to see a few videos of it out detecting and how it compares side by side with the 800. Wishing you all the best. Good luck, happy hunting and take care. ✌️
Thank you for this Mike, I'm going to put it in my favorites because I'm sure I will need to refer back to it👍 It's good to know the factory settings work for a beginner🤯
Looking forward to getting my hands on this machine Mike, Just want to see more evidence that it will find things in the parks I’ve hunted with the Nox..
@@IffySignals the price tag is $2.500. Australian, I’m just concerned I won’t find much going back behind where I’ve been with the 800 lol. Great to see you bud , Looking forward to the videos you have to share, take care bud 👍
I don't know your real name but I'd like to thsnk you for your part in getting Nokta to put an adjustable Iron Filter on the Legend and thanks for everything else you done.
@@IffySignals you're welcome Mike I never knew what an Iron Bias was because all my metal detectors are older but I really don't use any discrimination.
Great video, thank you. *My only critique is you often are referencing other models of metal detectors to explain options. This is my first metal detector, I don't own all the metal detectors you're speaking of.* Just a thought.
Thanks for sharing. how would you compare it to XP Deus2 regarding the depth? I am considering buying one of them. the depth is my priority. what is your recommendation?
Both are great and very deep punching machines. I really like features of both. XP is working on another update as well so all good stuff down the line.
I know nothing about the CTX3030 but I believe there was a setting that provided “flute” type tones ? I hope you know what I mean. Does the Manticore have the same feature / Tone sound ? Thanks. Jason.
Nice where you located? They shipping them to dealers I heard? Just by redesigning the coil will make a huge difference I’m selling my Nox and already have name in for one my Nox has more than paid itself off 10 fold so I’m on this new machine!
Weight, wireless, waterproof down to 60 feet goes to the Deus 2. Audio options, current performance with targets near iron go the Manticore right now (deus 2 does really well but pulls the VDI down to 7-8) and of course being able to see multiple targets on a nice color screen goes to the Manticore. Thx
Hi Mike. I am mostly a water detector and a prospector since I moved out of New England. I would be curious as to how the Manticore does on super small gold,
Hey John, for supper small gold you should stick to a gold machine that can go up to those really high frequencies. For general hunting it does great on gold.
Great vid I would like to know more about the depth perception I hunt with a Deus 2 that has quieter softer sounding edges the deeper the target is it like that?
So when using in shallow saltwater, obviously in that mode... where does one set GB? For instance with FBS or BBS, GB is not even a thought. With Manticore in shallow saltwater, does one GB? Turn on tracking, or manually set GB to 0?
very good video would i be right in saying that if someone came up with a good programme i would have to manualy put the programme in ? if so how many saves has the Manticore got? for each different setting geoff swansea south wales uk
Hey Steve, i don’t have any experience with it on the beach but i can tell you in my soil 11” to 11” coil the manticore is deeper. Im in Rhode Island USA.
Nah. This is a different level to be honest with you. Between the audio options, being able to see multiple targets on the screen, separation, ignoring large iron…
@@IffySignals sounds interesting. I'm so in love with the LEGEND. Finding 2ft plus targets is sick. I'm able to re hunt everywhere now and this is too much fun
@@IffySignals i watched a video one of the tester said he liked using audio setting called 'oberdrive' under volume profile setting.. the video is called Manticore Metal Detector indepth talk and field test by True Viking, minutes - 13:19
You make a LOT of assumptions about jargon we understand. For beginners like me, I have NO IDEA what half of what you're talking about means. You're throwing out terms that beginners will know nothing about. You talk about regions, but say nothing about what that means, how they work, etc. This is an intermediate tutorial at best. It's not for beginners.
