[Eeglablist] Lowpass filtering after preprocessing

[Andreas Widmann]

PS: Resampling -> filtering should be considerably faster than filtering -> resampling.

Any filter implementation has to extrapolate the signal at the (epoch) edges the one or the other way possibly introducing edge effects depending on the signal and extrapolation algorithm (possibly also affecting phase). Edge effects are indeed usually less pronounced and problematic for lowpass filters than for highpass filters but cannot be excluded in general.
