Overview

What can you do with 2 Channels?

Record from multiple neural sources simultaneously
Measure conduction velocity (e.g. with earthworms!) to learn how fast action potentials travel

This expands on our original SpikerBox design and is just as easy to use. You can connect a laptop cable or a smartphone cable to listen to spikes on an external speaker, or watch them on your smartphone, iPad, or computer.

All our standard single-channel SpikerBox experiments are still possible, but with the 2-Channel SpikerBox, you can take two measurements at once.

Important: For 2-channel recordings, you’ll need a laptop with either a
2-channel (stereo) line input
or a usb sound card.
Mobile devices typically only allow one channel.

If you discover something new or develop a new 2-Channel experiment, we’d love to hear about it!
