- Опубліковано 13 лип 2024
- A new channel and a new video to help Nokta Makro Simplex+ owners get started on the wonderful journey of Simplex detecting. The Nokta Makro Simplex+ is a fantastic machine, able to detect deeply and accurately, but it does need tuning to discriminate out the unnecessary signals.
I can help you set up your Simplex+ to get the best out of it, in any situation. I also understand what it is like to be a new detectorist, with new terminology, new techniques, and many, many opinions offered to you about how to do this hobby best. Let's cut through all of this, go back to basics, and learn about the Simplex+.
This video goes through:
Intro 0:00
1. Turning it on- 3:39 minutes
2. Ground Balancing- 5:20 minutes
3. Sensitivity choice- 3:52, 16:00 minutes
4. Programme choice- 5:55, 9:18, 16:00 minutes
5. Determining Iron 7:05, 7:39, 8:16 minutes
6. What does a good signal sound like? 8:38 minutes
7. Pinpointing with the Simplex+- 10:43 minutes
8. Interference chatter with other devices- 12:42 minutes
9. Mute button- 13:10 minutes
10. Headphones and Pulsedive pinpointer- 13:35 minutes
11. Programme and sensitivity effects- 16:00
Learning as much as I can about the Simplex+ before I get mine for Christmas
One of the best how to videos for the simplex that i have watched.
Thank you for your loveky words.
Now there is a new 'basics' video to compare it to. Feedback very much welcomed. :)
Agreed and I have watched many
I agree. New subscriber. Brilliant, simple teaching
I agree👍
Thank you so much
Amazing tutorial
I am trying to pre-learn lol before I even order my first machine. You are an excellent teacher. Thanks and havagudun Lori.
Same here…I’ve watched a lot of videos and Lori is the best teacher by far! I’m looking forward to getting out there and putting these helpful tips to good use.
fantastic video. so many people are just too eager to give up on the simplex without really getting to know it. mine has found me plenty of rubbish BUT also found me two silver hammereds too. 😁
Fantastic. I haven't found any hammereds yet, but that isn't the because of the SImplex, but because I my permissions and area aren't populated enough. I will find one someday, but it will probably be on a dig in the central belt. :)
Couldn't agree more about people being so frustrated they give up, Mr Dark. I am sooo jealous of your hammereds, they are really scarce up in the Highlands, and I will have to wait til Club digs resume to have a chance at getting one. You never know though, there just may be a hammy dropped at my posh house permission, fingers crossed! :D
Brilliant video, this is the best I have seen it answers a lot of questions, just got a Simplex and you have put me on the right track, cheers big thanks
This is so helpful, thanks so much for making this excellent video! My Simplex+ arrives today and I feel like a little kid on Christmas morning. I've been reading up as much as I can, but an actual hands-on demonstration is always much more effective for me.
This is the video I’ve been waiting for! I learned more in this 20 minute video than the hours and hours of other ones I’ve watched. Thank you!
Wow, thank you so much for this Liz, you have made my day. You, and other new users are the reason I made this, and I am so very glad it is helpful. I spent so many hours watching videos from around the world, reading forums, and asking questions of everyone I met, to get the different bits of information I needed. And then add in the hours and hours I spent out in blizzards, wind, rain, ice cold, you name it, digging holes, to learn what the sounds meant, it took so much time.
I wanted to give back to others, what I had learned, so people could enjoy this machine from the start. Please let me know how you get on, and what you are finding. Happy Hunting :D
Thanks so much for this video I had bought the book but I'm too lazy to read it. You're a treasure
Excellent. I wish you well Lori. This channel will help alot of people that tune into it. Stay safe.
Cheers Tim, Happy Hunting. Let me know what sorts of things you find where you are. :D
So took my Bessy (Simplex) out on a picnic area, with owners permission. It was horrible, there was so much noise. So, I decided to rewatch your instruction videos. I will now return to the area on Park 2 and lower the sensitivity. Thanks again.👍👍
Good work Lori. Plenty of new users on FB that would benefit from seeing this.
Thank you Neil. I appreciate your feedback 😊
Thank you so much for this video! I very recently got my Simplex+ and appreciate the time you took to help us all. Keep up the good work and enjoy the hunt!
Hey lori here daniel from Belgium. I liked your explanation. Make more videos please.... I myself have just bought the Nokta Makro Simplex+ and am very curious. I myself have been searching for years with a Fisher F75 and quite a bit found but was now looking for a somewhat easier detector without all those settings and came out after all the reviews on the Nokta Makro Simplex+, everyone is so praising about it. Thanks for your video again some learned thx
Hi Daniel, thank you for your lovely comments. Welcome to the Simplex family, you've purchased a fantastic machine, but she does need time to learn. Swing lots, listen lots, dig lots. You will dig junk at first, but you will learn the machine the best way possible. :) Happy hunting!
New simplex plus just arrived yesterday. My great nephew is coming for a 2 week visit, we plan to hunt with the new simplex and my trusty at max.
This is why I watch your vids your the best teacher
I appreciate this video more than you know. I swing the Nox 600 and got this Simplex for my 7 year old son. I now understand more about this machine since watching your video and I’ll give it another try, then teach him and show him this video as well. Thank you!
Thanks for taking the time to help all of us newbies to the Simplex. You made it look fun and interesting.
Best video thank you headed to #2 thanks!
Thank you very much Lori for the advice and shout out, going to the beach today so will follow your advice
You’re a great teacher! Thanks again from Ithaca NY
enjoyed the video. my first detector is on order - a simplex for me and a midi hoard for my son. can't wait to get started.
Thanks ever so much for watching, I am glad it was helpful. I was so new to making videos when I did this, I probably need to remake it, lol. It has been a while, but the information is still valid. Knowledge is the important thing with your new Simplex, know that it is fine to tune it down if you need to. Any questions, give me a shout. It may take a few days to reply, but I will! Happy hunting when you get your new toy. :)
Thank you for taking the time to make these videos! I have one coming in the mail and I plan on watching all your videos before it get here.
I am new to MD, did a lot of research and ended up getting the simplex, Your videos have been so helpful ! Thank you !
MY Simplex will be hear in about a week - I will be back here again when it arrives...good video!!
Thank you for this video. Santa brought me this Hot Rod for Christmas. So, I figured I get on UA-cam university to learn how to metal detect (first time). Thus far your video has been best of the all others; you're good at teaching. As a matter of fact, yours is the only one I watched to the end. Will be looking for more. Thanks again! - Louis, Miami, FL.
Thanks a LOT for your videos !.. Been out in the fields a few times and basically didn't understand _anything_ of what the simplex + was tellling me. Been digging up mostly ironnails and iron-trash in hope for some coins and other interesting stuff, and kids starting to loose patience :) Thankfully for your videos i now understand what i have done wrong, and will adopt your "training" for tomorrows trip :)
Thank you so much. This is the first video that has been helpful. You broke it down better then any other video has done.
Subscribed . All the very best of lucky with both your channel and your finds🤞🏻
Thank you Future. Sorry I've taken so long to comment, I'm just learning that UA-cam doesn't always tell me when there are comments and I have to check every single video to make sure I haven't missed anyone.
New Simplex user here. I enjoyed this video. Subscribed. Thanks.
Thank you, I hope it was helpful! :)
I'm so glad I found your channel - I am new to md and I just bought a simplex and ready to take it out tomorrow! Wish me luck! Great video thank you!
I’m so glad to find your channel. I have just got my Simplex a couple of days ago and I am a newbie. Thank you!
Hi Harris, congrats on your new Simplex. Best advice I can give you is to use your new toy- every chance you get. The Simplex pays off time invested. Swing lots, listen lots, dig lots. You will dig junk (and good things too) initially, but you'll soon start to hear differences and be on your way. Happy hunting!
I love people that give useful and clear information. I think that this will be my first detecgor.
I just ordered one of these; it'll be here Tuesday. Thanks for the info. Very helpful.
Excellent video! Looking forward to more videos. Amazing machine.
Glad you make these videos My friend, i am going to watch them All and hopefully learn a lot about My simplex
Hi just bought a simplex+, thanks to you your videos are informative and are really helping me understand the machine, thank you, keep up the good work x
Nice video thanks for the info, just toying with my new simplex in my garden just now and you've helped me understand the basics every well
Just got my Simplex about weeks ago and I’m a newbie. Lovely clear and informative video thanks you very much.
Great! That looks like my machine. Covered in dirt. Well used I can tell! Thanks for the information. Been detecting for 20 years or so, used Simplex for a few. GL and HH!
Hi. I have nokta simplex, and this is the best review I've seen so far. Thanks.
I needed this channel 3 years ago! Thank you for this. Always being tempted to "upgrade" to a new model or different maker but I've recently just really decided to remain with my Simplex+ and get better at using it. In the moment it is difficult to always remember everything. I am hopeful that your videos will help me remember things better. Thank you!!
Thank you very much for taking the time to make this video,great info. just got my nokta simplex & this has helped me very much. Thanks again,Cheers.
Really glad it helped Benjamin, thank you!
Thank u, brought a simplex last week, tried yesterday at the beach for the first time, unsuccessful, but will watch your beach video, thank u, few things i still need to learn.
Thank you! Excellent explanation, I'm definitely considering purchasing as my first detector.
Afternoon Lori I been watching so many videos about the simplex over 50 coz I got a Garret euro ace but want a simplex as it looks very nice as looks easy to use I’m still a newbie but your videos are more helpful and understanding of all the settings now I can go ahead and order my simplex I’m going for the wireless headset kit thank you so much hope to see more videos from you in the future
Thanks antony 👍🏼
Thanks for the great video!
Great info, thanks for making this video. Your a good coach.
Thank you very much for this informative video x I just got a simplex + so trying to learn as much as possible x
Really great video, I am total newby to this I have a simplex of course and my first time detecting was on a organised dig at weekend tones and ids jumping everywhere, dug my first coke and hot rocks and a ton of iron. This video helps a lot 👍🏻
good to see ground balancing, I was just waiting for one beep after seeing it on another video. i'll certainly be doing it properly now. i was even told to leave it at 90 always! Thanks
hello, after seeing many videos of this detector, I bought it, and I could only try it for two hours, but in that short time, I liked it a lot, luckily I found your videos, you are fantastic explaining how we should put the simplex. I will follow your advice. I have already subscribed to your channel. greetings from Spain.
Extremely helpful. Thank you.
Looking forward to seeing more videos on the Simplex, Seems like a great machine for the money!
Simplex is pretty great that's for sure! And for the price? WOW! Very nice detailed video, keep up the great work.
Great video Lori. Very informative and well done!
Thanks Rob, you get a shout in my next two videos! You are one of the channels I have modelled the video style on, you are calm and measured, explain things really well, show the machine numbers and tones. I love watching your videos, I always learn something new, and now that you have the Nox I will learn more about the other machine in my house too. :D
I love my simplex with the latest update we do beaches . I have 2 other detectors but to hard to use to many programs and adjustments . Simplex is a turn on a go machine for me.
Have been using and trying to learn the Simplex for almost a year... Have learned a lot of little bbn pointers from your video.. subscribed! looking forward to watching more! Thank you!
Thank you Kevin. :) Any suggestions or questions, please let me know. :D
I have been hunting for 10 years using White's electronic machines. My new simplex shows up this weekend. Really enjoyed this video looking forward to watching them all,
Thank you so much 😃 the Simplex is a wonderful machine, but she does need time spent learning to avoid frustration and get the best from her. GL and let me know how you get on 😃
Thank You for the helpful and informative information
Very good video. Watched this and went out in my yard just to test it, already finding coins. Can't wait to go hit some sites... Thank you.
Great video, very informative and helpful.
thanks Lori just bought my simplex yesterday ,your video was much simpler than the instruction book .thanks again.
Very welcome, enjoy it!
When you had the chatter from the pulsedive, just frequency shift the pulse dive. Here’s the instructions from the pulsedive manual how to change it.
“FREQUENCY SHIFT
It is used to prevent the device from interfering with other detectors nearby.
To shift the frequency, press the on-off button while holding the (F) button pressed down. Each time you press the on-off button, a beep will be heard and/or the device will vibrate and the frequency will shift 1 step. There are 40 steps in frequency shift. The central frequency, which is the factory default, is indicated by double beeps / vibrations.”
This was very helpful, thanks!
Brilliant job, thank you!
Great video for a newbie like me!
Quite helpful and probably need to see your video again. A full demonstration of the Hand Held Pin- Pointer video would be as well helpful. Thank you.
Brilliant video absolutely enjoyed it. I have watched all the other simplex videos from around theworld and no one goes as in-depth as you do on the problems that you can have setting up and using the simplex metal detector. This machine is not simply a turn on and go machine. Must be tuned properly ground balanced and sensitivities must be set correctly again thank you very much for this video it will help a lot of people out.
Thank you so much Danny. That is high praise indeed 😁 I'm filming a couple videos tomorrow, so stay tuned for more Simplex Hot Rod updates :)
Great video. Very helpful. Thanks
Thanks for this. Got one on order.
Thank you soooo much I'm still learning with mine I haven't updated mine yet but I think I will now. I can't wait for your beach video I've been on wet sand and after some research went down to 00.0 and got on fairly well I think
I appreciate your videos thank you for your time
So glad I found this...i been struggling.... subscribed...
Wow... great teaching style.. I really learned a lot about tuning the Simplex.. a lot of other videos show you how they run it, but don't explain why their running that way...
Excellent video.
Very helpful..thank you 🪙🪙🪙
Thank you so much !!!
Im very close to purchasing this detector, had a Garrett in the past but it was way to complex and manually configurable. This video was very very helpful, thanks
Tbh I'd stay with the garrett. I've had one problem after another pairing up the wireless headphones
Thank you. Informative.
Just bought one of these so I will take all teh help I can get as I have never been metal detecting. Thank you for taking the time to do this. 👍👍Subbed.
Wonderful helpful video! Thank you!
Thank you very much! :)
That was very helpful thanks 😊
Brilliant thank you very helpful.
Looking forward to your beach video and all your other ones.
Let me know what you think, always glad to hear constructive feedback. Hope the videos help! :)
I bought a Simplex last month, and I am very frustrated, not with the machine; so far, I could not be happier however, I live in central Florida, where we only have 2 seasons, summer and broil. Every day at this time of year, the heat index is at least 105 degrees, most days even worse. I have not yet lasted for more than 15 minutes before gallons of sweat pour from my body. Sadly, it will be at least another 4 months before I get a real chance to use it. Love your videos.
Thanks ❤always learning 😮xx
You're amazing♡
Had my simplex+ go nutty yesterday on my first beach hunt-definitely happy to learn how to manage the settings! Thank you!
I've also got an in depth guide on here, and a beach tutorial too. If you are using the Simplex on the beach, you will need the beach one!

@@thesimplexguru1263 hiii mam I want to know the simpelex good for treasure hunt?
Thank you for your new channel. I sure learned a lot. I have a brother who just got a Simplex for Christmas. Will tell him about your channel. Will subscribe.
Thank you Michael, I've done many more videos since this one, please look through the listing, all topics are covered. Congratulations on your new Hot Rod Detector :)
@@thesimplexguru1263Yes, I know. Have seen some of them already.
I’ve got the simplex , I’ve used it for finding out arrows at the archery club when we’re outdoors
Thank you !
Very helpfull thank you.
Thank you, glad it was useful. I just want to help folks learn their machines to get the best from them 😃
Love your video! Thanks!
Thank you so much. I'm currently struggling with a whiplash injury, but hoping and willing desperately that I'll be back with a new detecting video hero soon. I've got a Crawfords/3 Tones and the Truth video on researching sites for detecting coming out in the next week, and a Highland walk video for Simplex Guru coming out at a similar time. Hope this keeps everyone going until I can swing again. Happy hunting!
@@thesimplexguru1263 Ahh hope you get well soon! So I'm lucky to haved pressed the subscribe button then haha! ;) Thanks again from the Netherlands!
Great vid thank you I just got a simplex and struggling with the constant chatting signals 👍
Hi Lori from Melbourne Australia
just found your video , great information, wish I had found it earlier. thank you. Looking forward to others
Thank you so much Delsie, so glad it helped. How long have you had your Simplex? :)
Had my simplex just before lockdown, so living in Scotland has restricted my using of it. Went out to a friends last Saturday, but only found a couple of buttons.
You are in Scotland too, fabulous. I got mine in January, and virtually spent every moment I could with it. My 1st channel "3 Tones and the Truth" (done just for fun- with my husband) there are videos of me out in a howling blizzard- 🙃. I was nuts. Found it so tough when lockdown started but making up for it now (safely of course!)
I'm in the boarders. I will look at your other video's on 3 tones & the truth. Thanks@@thesimplexguru1263
This is the most informative video on the EX + very well done.
🤘🏼😎 #dirtfishingKnowledge
The signal at 8.40. Personally I would not change programs/modes, I would just dig it. If it has potential I always think it's best to dig it out rather than play with settings. Broken gold, chains, and tricky targets can do that on all detectors, and by the time you have switched settings you could have got it out and moved on? Why look for a reason to walk away when it's just as quick and easy to have it out? Just some food for thought based on my own experiences. ATB MMMD
nice job
I do love my pulse dive pinpointer set up with wireless headphones. But full disclosure I use in tandem with the Garrett Carrot because I tend to use pulse dive at the beach in a watery hole due to its pulse technology. But on land The Carrot gets deeper and I dont have to be as close to a target on my initial dig. So I tend to use the carrot more on land. But my kit now requires both pinpointers to make me happy!!!
mark holbrook And do you use mute for the carrot?
When I’m not using my headphones I frequently forget to mute, and the feedback drives me batty. I need to shift the pulse dive sensitivity, I’ve been told it will sort it. But- full disclosure, I can hardly remember what buttons do what. I turn it on, it works, I don’t spend time on it. I should!
GREAT VID
Thank you for watching- hope it was useful. :)
