Audio 1

it is designed for areas that have many targets close together. So, what does that mean?
With the NORMAL setting a "beep" is emitted, and that "beep" is of a defined minimum duration for even the tiniest of targets.
In AUDIO 1, the "beep" from an individual target might not be as long as NORMAL if there is another target nearby, in other words, the audio circuit is allowed to update faster in order to give the user the idea that there are two (or more) targets with different characteristics (as indicated by their tones in this case) in the last sweep.
Let's do a super quick example. You are hunting in an area that is entirely free of junk, and your sweep takes you over two coins that are only 1 inch apart. At the speed you are moving the coil, the beep from the first coin might overlap the position of the second coin, which might then beep much later in the sweep giving you the impression that is is 6 inches or more away. Or, the second beep might in fact be ignored altogether too.
So, with the rapid response you will hear two tones in nearly real time, giving you a clue that you have two or more co-located targets.
Hope that helps.

for the example sweep I menat to include "You are hunting in NORMAL audio..."
and in the line following, I should have added "So, with the rapid response of AUDIO 1...
Again, hope that helps.

I find in my hunting, using <STRONG>Audio one </STRONG>gives a good round signal on coins. It really drags out the signal nicely. I sometimes switch between <STRONG>Normal</STRONG> and <STRONG>Audio one</STRONG>. On deep coins where the signal is week, it real makes them easy to identify. I will use the <STRONG>Normal </STRONG>setting most of the time, but If I want to swing a little faster through a park, I will use <STRONG>Audio one </STRONG>with <STRONG>Fast</STRONG> on. It is so distinctive that it will stop you on a dime. Literally on a dime. Just my 2 cents worth.

drag the signal unless their is another target in close proximity, then it seems to be able to change between the two faster.
I put a dime and a nickel in close proximity for my test, and it seems to make the fact that there are two coins more obvious that the NORMAL setting.

Das, It's awesome like this. It changes up the setting a little bit, but it will separate well. When I first used it, I was shocked at how easy it was to pick out the coins with this setting. I'm not saying I use it all the time, but in parks with trash those coins will stick out like sore thumbs.

not saying any one way is better than any other.
Hell, we all know old timers with their BFO machines that can run circles around ID machines, and they got that way by getting out and detecting!
