The thin, Stainless Steel shaft of the probe contains 7 Platinum/Iridium electrodes, from which the middle one (tip electrode) is symmetrically surrounded by the 6 others. The Heptode Magic Pencil is characterized by low impedance value and remarkable signal-to-noise ratio (SNR). It is ideal for pre-clinical recordings.

The Heptode Magic Pencil significantly improves spike sorting precision compared to the traditional microelectrodes or tetrodes. This performance is driven by a high-performance spatial recording characteristics, which allows for a more accurate identification of neuronal spikes.
