For example, if my recording is only 5-10 mins would that be too little? Obviously more time means more data and more examples of the spike waveform so I presume it will do better, but is there a minimum?\r\n\r\nIn general, would you recommend running all stimuli and saving them as one huge Spike GLX .bin file for spike sorting or you can record them separately, concatenate them in Matlab/Python and sort them in this way? In my case for example, I am running a stimulus for finding whether the neuron is responsive to sound (white noise - 5mins), another one for the frequency tuning of the neuron (FRA - 15mins), then another more complex stimulus (complex stim  - 40 mins). What would be the best approach in this case?\r\n\r\nOn the other extreme, from your personal experience, what do you find the maximum time during which you can \"see/hold\" the same neuron? Tens of minutes, hours, days? Are there any algorithms currently being developed for motion correction?\r\n\r\nCheers,\r\n\r\nAlex"}}
