Awesome ash, thanks heaps, the sounds really are different when you hear them side by side, i can see what you mean about short sharp gold sound and the drawn out sound now, charcoal ,ha , who knew, thats very helpful. Thanks so much mate for taking the time to help us newbies, im sure a lot of people will find that as helpful as i did. 🤘🤘 thanks mick
Thanks for demo on the different sounds to match up to the different targets. Will definitely be listening out for the the sounds next time out. Might even have a go in the backyard.
The advice about the tones peaking was excellent. Perfect demonstration because like you said, gold doesn't peak like that unless it's a ripper. Thank you for this!
Great video brother. To many detectorist really rely on the bar on the detector being on gold and the sounds, but don't dig all or most targets. Watching the bar on the screen and tones really help us not dig certain targets. What do you think about ghosting? Ghosting is a situation where the gold is very close to a nail of some Ferris metal. Thanks for sharing your knowledge of the tones of the GM1000.😎😎⛏⛏🔥🔥
Best GM sound coaching I’ve seen Don’t give too many tips or there won’t be any shiny stuff left for when we can get out there 😂 Seriously tho great vid Cheers 🍻
Bloody awesome video, mate. I'm new to defecting, but I'm sure with your channel, I will get better at it . I have found heaps of lead , rust nuggets, and just general scrap. I have set up stuff at home , gold , nails ,foil, bottle caps, lead, bronze coins, silver coins, etc! I'm still chasing that elusive AU! I know this is an old post , but it is still giving excellent advice. You should be very proud of your exploits . Please keep hammering, mate bloody good job! The best thing is you're as dinky as😂😂
Top job. I would have liked to hear it at different height levels over each piece and I guess though in the ground you will have the mineralisation masking the depth and tone. As we all say, DIG every unsure target. Cheers.
Thanks mate, we are filming a vid for that aspect of it early in the new year 🤘 mainly focused on gold sizes and depth but will throw in some different targets too
Looking forward to it Ash. My Cuzzie just got a gold monster and it’s doing our heads in. Your our go to guy now and already our heads are easing up. Thank you buddy.
@@MrKeenaz awesome mate glad I can help 🤘 if your not on our fb page jump on got a chrissy comp going atm drawn on Wednesday mate, Thanks for the feedback mate appreciate it
I've watched many vids on the GM you did a great job I can't wait to get out there with my new knowledge.and had no idea charcoal will set it off many thanks bro
@Damx go pak awesome I have a few friends in AZ We have had a rough year hence no new content but we have begun filming now so should be up soon Thanks again and Keep Hammering mate
A place I like to hunt has a very hot sounding bedrock, I'll definitely use near full manual and gold mode next time I'm there,thanks and great video .Subbed
Is that a special belt for holding detector equipment or do the holders slip on to a normal belt and if so who sells them ? Thanks for the Au musical tones. 👏👏👏🥂
Cheers frog No it's just a regular leather belt with a hammer clip I bought from my local hardware store 🤘 Just search for hammer belt clips and there is a range to choose from
Great video. Very informative. I do have a question... My gold bug never makes any noise till I have a target. I try to balance it to the ground frequency with fist pumps but my machine never seems to make a noise till I find a target... Does this make any sense to you? I just bought it and I'm new to detecting. But I have found lead with it so I know it's finding accurate targets. Any help would be great. Thanks!
Hey Kyle, I'm glad you like the videos. If your finding lead and your machine is quiet throughout, and you will find gold Lead and gold have similar characteristics in tone and size so keep it up 👌 Your machine sounds like it's sitting where it needs to be. Quiet until target is a god send whilst your learning. Goodluck out there And Keep Hammering
@Kyle Stewart that makes things easier My guess is you have your machine settings set to discrimination mode.. To change that back to all metal mode press the mode button and you will see little gold bars change to a nail. Cheers
I have found a lot of nuggets that give different sounds with the 4500. Sometimes it's the shape, sometimes it's the density. I think. I know gold is gold but some nuggets have been pounded and some are fresher to the source. I just got a monster and have, maybe, 3 days under my belt. Does the monster give different tones on some nuggets versus others? For instance, I've found nuggets with the 4500 that give off a wobbly tone. Not a lot, but when I hear that sound, I get excited. So just wondering if the monster will vary like the 4500.
I neat way to prove you’re correct would be to do a blind test. Have someone cover a few targets with paper plates, then use your trained ear to prove lead and gold have different tones. 👍
Gday Mate, We cover that feature in our Gm1000 indepth video But yes I do but I always ground balance the machine every now and then and use that feature when the machine struggles to keep up in a short space, Check out that vid if you like 🤘
So the left to right meter doesn't mean much if you still have to listen for the exact tone. Sucks. I just bought one thinking the meter always shows when it's gold to the right and something else to the left.
Heya Scotty, Unfortunately yes it's not 100% reliable Wish it was We have found that it will jump left to right on Gold It's definitely more accurate at going left with rubbish Cheers mate And goodluck out there Don't forget to message our Facebook page and hit up a catch up out there 👌 Ash Khp
@@keephammeringprospecting Sounds good, thanks for the info. Today will be my second day going out to use the MG 1000. It was all fun the first day but it's time to get serious.
I buggered if l could tell the difference between any of the targets and that annoying sound is absolutely horrible.. I would go crazy and end up smashing the monster .. Obviously your going to be frustrated that the thousand dollar plus you spent getting it was a waste of money and sanity... reckon a 60 dollar jaycar detector would be just as good as the monster and as you will probably only use it once a year that's a lot of beer money in the kitty. My take is unless your willing and able to splash 7 thousand on a 6500 minelab the monster is a well marketed toy Just mention gold and all mindfulness goes down the rabbit hole... Anyway thanks for the demo you just saved me over a thousand l have a beer for you while your digging up nails 😂😂
Awesome ash, thanks heaps, the sounds really are different when you hear them side by side, i can see what you mean about short sharp gold sound and the drawn out sound now, charcoal ,ha , who knew, thats very helpful.

Great video on gold monster sounds. Almost 1000 views in one day shows how popular this guide will be over time.
Thanks heaps mate 🤘
Just here to help best i can
best explanation of the gold monster and its tones. that quick "wobble-pop" of gold is pretty distinctive.
Great job explaining the operation of the 1000.

Mate, thanks so much for this video. I have not found a good example of the different sounds of targets anywhere. This is the best. keep it up.
Cheers mate appreciate it
Great demonstration of the different sounds of the GM1000. Easy to see 👀 the changes from one to another. 👀🤔🤠🌵👍
Great vid Ash, just what we need. Thanks, guys for doing this.

Good stuff Richard 👏
Tyvm for the video, very well explained

Hey Kyle, I'm glad you like the videos.
If your finding lead and your machine is quiet throughout, and you will find gold
Lead and gold have similar characteristics in tone and size so keep it up 👌
Your machine sounds like it's sitting where it needs to be.
Quiet until target is a god send whilst your learning.
Goodluck out there
And Keep Hammering
@@keephammeringprospecting I ment to say my gold monster. Thanks though! Cheers! I'll keep hunting
@Kyle Stewart that makes things easier
My guess is you have your machine settings set to discrimination mode..
To change that back to all metal mode press the mode button and you will see little gold bars change to a nail.
Cheers
Gold will not max out, handy to know! Cheers
You know if you press and hold the middle top button the little pik of the coil will flash when it stops its ground balanced.
Yeah mate, we covered the Quick Track function in our gm in-depth video 🤘
Great vid, very helpful, thanks

Is tone similar for silver or platinum?
How much do the sounds change with the variable of the depth of an object or does it? Much info Thank You.

I neat way to prove you’re correct would be to do a blind test. Have someone cover a few targets with paper plates, then use your trained ear to prove lead and gold have different tones. 👍
Gold sounds like a game of pong :)
Do you ever use the auto balance?
Gday Mate,
We cover that feature in our Gm1000 indepth video
But yes I do but I always ground balance the machine every now and then and use that feature when the machine struggles to keep up in a short space,
Check out that vid if you like 🤘
Thanks, good video
Minelab monster 1000 and Fisher bug 2 which is a good detector?
So the left to right meter doesn't mean much if you still have to listen for the exact tone. Sucks. I just bought one thinking the meter always shows when it's gold to the right and something else to the left.
Heya Scotty,
Unfortunately yes it's not 100% reliable
Wish it was
We have found that it will jump left to right on Gold
It's definitely more accurate at going left with rubbish

I hope you get 1000KG Gold

I need monster used how much ,
Ok b
Hello
Why not just place the gold beside each target to show the difference rather than have us go find each tone and then go back to compare it lol
I buggered if l could tell the difference between any of the targets and that annoying sound is absolutely horrible..
I would go crazy and end up smashing the monster ..
Obviously your going to be frustrated that the thousand dollar plus you spent getting it was a waste of money and sanity... reckon a 60 dollar jaycar detector would be just as good as the monster and as you will probably only use it once a year that's a lot of beer money in the kitty.
