As successor of the PULSE program family, PATCHMASTER now offers additional features meeting the highest standards of modern electrophysiology. This new software, running on PC-based and Macintosh computers, harbors all comfortable functions of PULSE, but offers a variety of novel procedures aimed to make electrophysiological research even more versatile and efficient.

With PATCHMASTER experimental design, performance, and analysis become much more flexible giving rise to a high degree of automation and providing access to experimental protocols that were thus far unattainable with commercial software
