What is a .CNT file?
CNT is a continuous EEG recording from Neuroscan systems.
- Did you know
- CNT holds the brain-wave signals captured in a Neuroscan EEG study.
- The extension was coined by Neuroscan’s acquisition software and stands for “continuous EEG data file”.
- Neuroscan, now part of Compumedics, actually ships two CNT layouts - a block-multiplexed one for its SynAmps hardware and a fully multiplexed one for everything else.
- What Analyser reads
- Identify and read more scientific, medical and engineering files: R serialized data (RDS/RData), ABIF sequencing traces, VASP/Gaussian/XCrySDen DFT structures, ChemDraw (CDX/CDXML), Axon ABF and NI TDMS instrument data, BrainVision/Neuroscan/EEGLAB EEG, Gmsh/Abaqus/Nastran/ANSYS FEA decks, SPICE netlists, VTK structured/rectilinear grids and oscilloscope waveforms.
- Depth of analysis
- .CNT is an identification-grade format: Analyser recognises it from its bytes and decodes the header metadata it carries, rather than opening it in a full viewer. Formats that do get a full viewer are marked "Full" on the formats page.
- Open a .CNT file
- Drag a .CNT file onto the Analyser home page (or tap to pick one). It is identified entirely in your browser - nothing is uploaded, there is no account, and it works offline once installed.
