[FieldTrip] ft_denoise_synthetic 3rd order grad

Hello girls and guys,

It is working for my CTF MEG data - the version that I have is v4692 
2011-11-07.

The other thing that might cause a problem could be ommiting the 
reference channels definition before the ft_ preprocessing command that 
gave you your "dataprepro"

i.e maybe you might  need something like this

cfg = [];

...
//various preprocessing parameters
...

cfg.channel            = {'MEG', 'MEGREF', 'REFGRAD' , 'REFMAG'};

dataprepro = ft_preprocessing(cfg);


Hope you are lucky :)

Best,
Panagiotis
