Mismatch negativity (MMN) is one of the most promising ERP effects for a clinical tool. Clinically relevant information on patient’s cognitive skills can be extracted using the multi-feature MMN paradigm for recording the auditory discrimination profile. Relevant features for the stimulus sequence are chosen according to the clinical question. In this work, the benefits of using an application-specific recording system to measure MMN were studied. According to the results, optimization would allow significant cost reduction, increased research volume and, thus, creating more convincing databases. Additionally, it would enable bringing clinical MMN recording procedures from specialized departments to the patients. Here, the optimization task was applied to MMN, but the effects of optimization are most likely to be similar for any kind of ERP response.
