Dear Balaji,<div><br><div>I'm also an ANT Neuro EEG system user, and I've actually been wondering the same thing, so thanks for asking! Our data is recorded with average reference by default, and I don't re-reference the data after collection. I'm not sure if anyone else does things this way, and under what circumstances the data should be re-referenced after collection. Also, I've been wondering if my averaged ERP waveforms look different from those typically reported in the literature because of differences in the way that ERPs are referenced (e.g. linked ears or mastoids rather than average). Hopefully someone who knows more about this can enlighten us both!</div>

<p class="MsoNormal">Dear EEGLAB users,<u></u><u></u></p>

<p class="MsoNormal">We collect data using <b>ANT EEG system</b> which by default uses average reference during data collection.<u></u><u></u></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">We've been collecting this way for very long and analyze our data using the same. Sometimes we do change the reference offline to compare our results with various reference options.<u></u><u></u></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Recently we were told by one of the researchers that it is not correct to change the reference (for e.g. to linked ears), if the data was originally recorded using average ref. However looks like vice-versa is possible.<u></u><u></u></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><u></u> <u></u></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">I always thought re referencing offline is never an issue no matter what your recording montage/reference is. Any explanation/thoughts on this issue is appreciated.<u></u><u></u></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><u></u> <u></u></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Also, I would like to know what ref. ANT users generally use to record EEGs and for their analyses?<u></u><u></u></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><u></u> <u></u></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Thanks,<u></u><u></u></p>
