Hi, As I have Updated mine just after the release of the the software, I can tell you I would recommend it without hesitation.
Before I downloaded the software, I was detecting in a very very noisy ground and impossible to get the Z quiet, it was a salty ground, more or less salty in some places in the area.
But I managed to find some bits even without the software but after I put it, I came back where I had the more ground noises with the salty soil mode and found few nuggets I missed before because of all the long ground noises due to the salty soil.
And now I am detecting on a little bit quieter but still noisy ground with locate patch and it works like a treat, because the reactivity is increased with that mode The target responses are much sharper and I can increase the sensitivity much more before the Z gets too noisy
So go for it, you will find gold you missed with that software for sure
I am yet to try the semi auto ground balance mode but I will get into it the following days to see what happen
