Beta1 and HighBeta differentiation

Post by muser »

Hi, is there a way to see the Beta1(15 -18 Hz) and HighBeta o 18/30 Hz) separately? Does anyone know what Hz ratio muse or musemonitor is using for detecting the brainwaves ?

Thanks!

If you switch to the discrete frequency graph you can see individual discrete frequencies live when you're wearing the Muse.

If you want to calculate from recorded data, then this is also possible, but you'd need to do your own FFTs on the RAW EEG data. This is a pretty complex bit of math, so not recommended unless you know what you're doing.

In Muse Monitor Beta is 13Hz to 30Hz

Hi James,

I find your post very informative, and I must admit your software is really helpful.
I you mind reading: https://sapienlabs.org/the-remarkable-i ... finitions/ - you'll probably notice the issue I was originally referring to.

Musemonitor would be even more helpful software with an advanced option to edit the band frequencies and a reset to default option.

This are the band frequencies sometimes used with neurofeedback sessions for your reference:
Theta Mean 4-8Hz
Alpha Mean 8-12Hz
SMR Mean 12-15Hz
Beta 1 Mean 15-18Hz
HighBeta Mean 18-30HZ

Sorry, but I don't want to add even more settings for this into the already crowded settings interface!

All the raw data is there for people to do FFT's if they want to do this kind of thing and I've got a MatLAB import script on the website already for the hardcore neuroscientists who are already doing this :-)
