ERPLAB 6.1
ERPLAB Toolbox is a free, open-source Matlab package for analyzing ERP data. It is tightly integrated with EEGLAB Toolbox, extending EEGLAB’s capabilities to provide robust, industrial-strength tools for ERP processing, visualization, and analysis. A graphical user interface makes it easy for beginners to learn, and Matlab scripting provides enormous power for intermediate and advanced users.
ERPLAB v6.1
To install ERPLAB v6.1, download the zip file (linked above), unzip and place the folder in the 'plugins' folder of your existing EEGLAB installation (e.g. ~/Documents/MATLAB/eeglab13_6_4b/plugins/erplab-6.1/). Additional installation help can be found here.
To run ERPLAB, ensure that the correct EEGLAB folder is in your current Matlab path, and run eeglab as a command from the Matlab Command Window. Find our tutorial here..
We encourage most users to use this latest major version.
ERPLAB compatibility
We anticipate that ERPLAB will work with most recent OSs, Matlab versions and EEGLAB versions.
We do recommend a 64 bit OS, 64 bit Matlab, and at least 4 GB RAM. Most modern computers meet this. The Matlab Signal Processing Toolbox is required.
The EEGLAB v11 is not recommended.

ERPLAB v6.1 Release Notes
Shift Event Codes
The new Shift Event Codes tool has been updated so that when you shift event codes beyond a continuous EEG boundary marker (e.g. -99, "boundary" event codes) then that code will be deleted
New Github-based documentation & ERPInfo.org website
We have fully migrated of all our ERPLAB documentation (i.e. manual, tutorial, etc) now to Github, and so have now updated the help links in ERPLAB.
