An Invitation to join a new Findmall forum - Erik's Audio World

[Erik in NJ]

for want of a better name Anyway, I know it started as a joke - part of Guvner's wicked wit (and it was pretty funny )- but then I thought "why not?!?!" - it's a good venue to continue some interesting discussions that many have PMed me about and expressed great interest in. The name is not serious, but the discussions will be. Some hope to see you there too. Best, Erik

I've been

 

[TheMarshall]

Detecting with my E-Trac.

I believe that we are all primarily audio detectorists. Just what type of 'menu-ed'sound manipulation we prefer, is totally a personal choice.

Does the choice affect the efficiency of finding? I believe it depends on the the general target density of the area being searched.

In the worst case scenario, plenty of responses, then I use NORMAL or PITCH HOLD.

Low density, infrequent target reporting, then I experiment with SMOOTH audio.

I use FERROUS for the following reasons.

Iron is reported 95% more accurately, audibly.

Four tones, coupled with the depth indicator, and general repeatably of the signal, gives me the incentive to dig.

I do glance at the 2D display, but like the VDI's, it is a lethargic aid, and I prefer to dig rather than wait.

I personally detest MULTI., but each to their own sounds.

In all honesty, if the audio is repeatable, both back and forth etc, I dig it.

Thanks Erik and all readers......................TheMarshall
