Description

I'm using Open Ephys' ONIX system to record my Neuropixel 1.0 recordings. This system spits out a binary file that I load with read_binary. I'm aware that the phase_shift pre-process requires a inter_sample_shift property in the recording that is automatically loaded from spikeglx and openephys read functions. In the absence of that, is there a way to generate/calculate this shift so that I can run the phase_shift on my data before using kilosort?

Research direction

Start by reviewing the read_binary entry point and the phase_shift pre-processing path, focusing on how inter_sample_shift is obtained by the SpikeGLX and Open Ephys readers. Determine whether a shift can be derived for ONIX binary recordings and define what support or documentation is needed for running phase_shift before Kilosort.
