I don't know the source of your 20Hz noise, but you'd better confirm what it is. You also want to confirm how temporally stable it is. To do this, bandpass filter the data 18-22 Hz or around and see the time series. Do you see rather fast wax and wane of it? Compare your CleanLine sliding window length to the approximate time constant of the wax and wane of the target noise. If the former is too large, of course CleanLine would fail.</div><div class="gmail_extra"><br></div><div class="gmail_extra">That being said, this seems most suspicious.</div><div class="gmail_extra"><br></div><div class="gmail_extra">> Yet when I save the 'cleaned' file, the spectral peak at 20Hz remains unchanged (despite the window showing original and cleaned spectra for selected channels shows clear differences in the frequency band that I'm interested in cleaning). Any input would be most helpful, all the best.<br></div><div class="gmail_extra"><br></div><div class="gmail_extra">I wonder if EEG is not updated correctly after computation.
