Description

Hello,

I am using SpikeInterface with Spyking Circus 2 to sort Maxwell 2 data. It’s great to observe network bursts (synchronized activity) at both the electrode and sorted-neuronal levels! However, it seems that after sorting, I consistently "miss" two synchronized events every aprox 50s, which are detected at the electrode level but not in the sorted data. Is this normal? Could you help me interpret or understand what might be causing this?

Attached are plots showing the electrode- and neuron-level raster plots.

Thank you very much for your guidance and for providing such great software!

Research direction

Start by reviewing the attached Rasterplots.pdf and the reported electrode-level versus sorted-neuronal raster plots. Investigate how SpikeInterface handles Maxwell 2 data with Spyking Circus 2 and whether the missing synchronized events can be reproduced. Done means documenting the cause or confirming the behavior and identifying the relevant sorting stage.
