Spike2 is the data acquisition system of choice for thousands of researchers worldwide

Whether you require simple data capture or a complete package for experimental control using one of the CED 1401 family of data acquision peripherals, recording and analysis, Spike2 has many advantages over other data acquisition systems

• Spike2 is easy to use as a general purpose capture and analysis package. You do not need to export data to another program for detailed analysis or to purchase add-on modules for specific tasks
• Spike2 for Windows version 6 requires a CED Power1401, a Micro1401 or a 1401plus intelligent laboratory interface, and a PC with Windows 98SE, Me, Windows 2000 or XP
• Spike2 has the power and flexibility for demanding applications for which you would expect to require more specialised equipment, for example extracellular multi-electrode recording and complex stimulus timing and delivery
• Spike2 has the sampling and analysis features most researchers need. There is also a built-in script language which allows automation of repetitive tasks and provides many additional tools for researchers who prefer to write their own applications
• Spike2 can import data recorded by many other systems, so that you can take advantage of this extremely versatile software to analyse existing data
• Spike2 can export data in spreadsheet format and as text or binary files. Additional export formats are planned
