    <p>Hi there,</p>
    <p>thank you so much for the info! As far as I understand, I could
      take both head model and source model, as well default electrode
      positions from the FT templates. Would you recommend a specific
      template for each category? I am uncertain as to the
      (dis)advantages of each of them.</p>
    <p>It seems to me, that the standard_bem head model would be a good
      start, as it is based on the "colin27" canonical brain. The choice
      of source model seems to depend on the estimation method one would
      use, but there are several options for each. In terms of electrode
      positions, one could go with the standard_1020 or standard_1005
      and modify them to fit the electrode setup used in the experiment,
      right?</p>
    <p>Best,<br>
      Jan<br>

          <p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt">Hi there,<br>
              <br>
              my name is Jan Ostrowski and I am working on crossmodal
              memory. I <br>
              conducted a study using a 64-Channel EEG setup, and would
              like to <br>
              explore the data using Fieldtrip's source reconstruction
              functionality. <br>
              However, due to my study design, I did not acquire
              individual MRI images <br>
              for solving the forward problem.<br>
              <br>
              I'd like to know if it is possible to use some default
              templates for <br>
              that, as all tutorials assume that one has MRI images to
              work with. If <br>
              it is possible, then what templates should I use and how
              would I <br>
              implement it? As in: What steps of the process described
              in the <br>
              tutorials could I skip?<br>
              <br>
              I understand that using default templates will make the
              results of the <br>
              source reconstruction less precise, and I am well aware
              that one should <br>
              be cautious when interpreting that. This is, however,
              going to be an <br>
              additional, exploratory analysis.<br>
              <br>
              Any help with this is greatly appreciated!<br>
              <br>
