Analyzer 2

Overview

The analysis software for EEG/ERP research

BrainVision Analyzer started in 1997 and is used in thousands of research labs. Scientists use BrainVision Analyzer to process a variety of neurophysiological data. Analyzer is easy to use and offers a variety of powerful features.

Analyzer 2 at a glance

Stable, reliable and fast
Quick to get started and intuitive to learn
Based on reliable scientific methods
Easily expandable features (MATLAB®) and compatible with other analysis software (BESA)
More than 50 data formats, coordinates, triggers, etc.
Free scientific support

Self-documenting and easy to learn

Visual representation of analysis steps in a structure called History Trees®
Analysis steps in History Trees® let you explore and compare various data processing strategies
Each History Tree® node contains full description of parameters used for data processing
Short learning curve = Less time from recording to publication

Fast processing and visualization

Templates from History Trees® applied to multiple datasets for quick and consistent analysis
Templates applied automatically (or manually using drag and drop mode) to multiple subjects
On-demand calculation = No need to re-process your data!
Multiple views for fast data visualization and comparison

Basic and advanced methods

Automatic import and export of data, events/triggers, channel coordinates, etc.
Filters, Raw Data Inspection, interactive ICA, FFT, Wavelets, Coherence, LORETA and more.
Tailored transformations for MR and CB artefact correction; integration of Eye-Tracking data
Real-time communication with MATLAB®
Video integration for frame-by-frame monitoring of participant’s behavior

Free scientific support & more
