As the title, is it possible to run MaxFilter without SSS? I am using data collected by MEGIN TRIUX Neo where MaxShield was employed so MaxFilter is necessary. However, some articles said that when doing MVPA or Beamforming, SSS should not be applied. So I am looking for a method that I can solely run MaxFilter without SSS thing. Is is possible in MNE?
