[Eeglablist] pop_eegfiltnew in eeglab latest version

[Andreas Widmann]

Hi Angel,

assuming you refer to FIR filtering: usage of the new filters is recommended. The legacy filters were kept for backward compatibility purposes only.

See the FAQ for more details on the differences (e.g. second question)
http://sccn.ucsd.edu/wiki/Firfilt_FAQ

See 
http://www.frontiersin.org/Perception_Science/10.3389/fpsyg.2012.00233/full
and
https://sccn.ucsd.edu/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=631
for a more detailed description of the problems with the legacy filter.

Best,
Andreas

> Hi everyone! I've been using the latest version of eeglab(12.0.2b) to filter EEG data. I noticed there's a new filter, but the software allows to use the previous filtering function as well. I've been reading the help files and the wiki, but I'm afraid I still don't understand the difference between the filters. Could anybody explain me in simple terms what's the difference between the old and the new filtering function, and in which way the latest would be better. Furthermore, would you recommend to use the new filtering function, or is it still experimental?
