Freiburg, Germany: December 16, 2014
Important notes
Working with MEG/EEG recordings involves a lot of computational resources and large display windows. Therefore we recommand that you bring a laptop with a decent processing capacity, 4Gb RAM and a screen larger than 13".
You would also add to your comfort by bringing an external mouse. Most of the manipulations are done with the mouse, and some involve an intensive use of the scrolling operation. A mouse wheel or the "two-finger move" on MacBooks are perfect for this, but this operation is not always easy to perform on some laptops.
Don't forget your power adapter!
Installation instructions
Before coming to the workshop, you need to download the software and the tutorial dataset from the Brainstorm website (150Mb). To streamline troubleshooting during the session, please save all the downloaded files on your Desktop.
From the Brainstorm Download page, log in or create a Brainstorm account
Download the following files to your Desktop folder:
Brainstorm software: brainstorm_YYMMDD.zip (71 Mb)
Tutorial dataset: workshop_freiburg.zip (75 Mb)
If you already have Brainstorm, make sure that the version was released after December 5th.
- Unzip the two downloaded files on your desktop
- Delete the zip files
Create a folder "brainstorm_db" on your Desktop folder
- Final check: you should have now 3 folders on your desktop:
brainstorm3: Program folder, with the Matlab source code and the compiled executable
brainstorm_db: Brainstorm database (empty)
workshop_freiburg: Example dataset used during the training session
- Run Brainstorm, to make sure it works correctly on your computer (read the following section)
Running Brainstorm for the first time
With Matlab
- Start Matlab
Do NOT add brainstorm3 folder to your Matlab path: this will be done automatically
- Go to the brainstorm3 folder
- Type "brainstorm" in the command window
- When asked for the Brainstorm database folder, pick the "brainstorm_db" you have just created
Without Matlab
- Those instructions are valid for the following operating systems:
Download the MCR R2014b (8.4) for your operating system: Mathworks website
- Install the MCR:
Windows: Double-click on the .exe and follow the instructions
MacOS: Click on the zip file to unzip it, then click on "InstallForMacOSX"
Linux: From a terminal, unzip .zip, then run ./install
- Run the program in brainstorm3/bin/R2014b/
Windows: Double-click on brainstorm3.bat
MacOS: Double-click on brainstorm3.command and wait for instructions
Linux: From a terminal, run:
cd brainstorm3/bin/R2014b/
./brainstorm3.command
- Troubleshooting for MacOS or Linux:
On recent versions of MacOS, you may get an error message "Application can't be opened because it is from an unindentified developer". This message would appear for all the programs that were not downloaded from the Apple appstore. To go around this verification: right-click on the application > Open, then click on the Open button.
From a terminal, make sure that the file "brainstorm3.command" is executable:
chmod a+x brainstorm3.commandIf nothing happens, run:
./brainstorm3.command MCR_DIR
MCR_DIR is the MCR 8.3 folder (ex: /Applications/MATLAB/MCR/v84)Try with another binary release: Matlab 2012b, Matlab 2013b, ?Matlab 2014a
- Troubleshooting for Windows:
Your current user may not have the necessary privileges. If are an adminstrator for your computer, you can do the following: right-click on brainstorm3.bat > Run as administrator.
If you are not the administrator of your computer and Matlab or the MCR are not installed in the standard paths, Brainstorm may have trouble finding them. To specify manually the path of the MCR or Matlab folder, right-click on brainstorm3.bat > Edit. Fill the second line of the script (Example: @SET MATLABROOT="C:\Program Files\MATLAB\R2014b"), save the file, and try to execute it again.
- On Linux or MacOS, you may be asked to select the folder where you installed the MCR.
- When asked for the Brainstorm database folder, pick the "brainstorm_db" you have just created.
Getting ready for the workshop
In order to make sure that Brainstorm works properly and to get more familiar with the software, we recommend that you read and follow at least the first two online tutorials:
