This section provides an overview of some of the software available for analysing EEG data.

FieldTrip (A toolbox for MATLAB)
The FieldTrip toolbox can be downloaded here: http://fieldtrip.fcdonders.nl/. The website contains documentation, tutorials and example scripts. For additional help and advice, join and search the FieldTrip mailing list (http://fieldtrip.fcdonders.nl/discussion_list). There are also regular FieldTrip Workshops available.
For anyone combining analyses in EEGLAB and FieldTrip, the function eeglab2fieldtrip can be extremely useful (http://eeglab.googlecode.com/svn-history/r9697/eeglab/plugins/dipfit2.2/eeglab2fieldtrip.m).

SPM (A toolbox for MATLAB)
SPM is a toolbox designed for MRI, EEG and MEG data. The SPM toolbox can be downloaded here: http://www.fil.ion.ucl.ac.uk/spm/. The website contains a manual and wiki. Useful videos on general and SPM-specific fMRI/MEG/EEG topics can be found here: http://www.fil.ion.ucl.ac.uk/spm/course/video/. For additional help and advice, join and search the SPM mailing list (http://www.fil.ion.ucl.ac.uk/spm/support/). There are also regular SPM Workshops available.

ERPLAB (A toolbox for MATLAB)
ERPLAB is a toolbox that works within EEGLAB, and it is designed specifically for ERP data analyses. The toolbox can be downloaded from the ERPLAB webpage: http://erpinfo.org/erplab. In order to install and use ERPLAB you will first need to have EEGLAB installed. Like EEGLAB, the ERPLAB functions can be used through the GUI or by scripting. EEGLAB and ERPLAB functions can be used in conjunction, and many people choose to do some pre-processing steps in EEGLAB and then move the cleaned data into ERPLAB to take advantage of the ERP-specific functions. The ERPLAB website is full of useful tutorials, videos, scripting guides/examples and FAQs to get you started.
...
The Mass Univariate ERP Toolbox is a set of MATLAB functions for performing mass univariate analysis of ERP data. This method is used to correct for the multiple comparisons problem that occurs when analyzing EEG data with typical hypothesis tests (e.g. t-tests). The toolbox can be downloaded from the website: http://openwetware.org/wiki/Mass_Univariate_ERP_Toolbox. The website also includes a tutorial and a link to a series of short videos by David Groppe (one of the Toolbox developers) about statistical methods for EEG analysis.

REMlogic
REMlogic is a piece of software designed for analysing data from sleep EEG. It is not freely-available, but is currently (2013) the software of choice for the York Sleep Lab.
