This program is very specific to the instrument we have, however, the commands used may be similar/familiar to users of other instruments, harkening back to the Unix days of these instruments and their command line commands. | ||

There are alternatives to NUTS -- it is merely what is bundled with this instrument but many other free and non-free tools exist. MNova is a common commercial software, and free tools include Spinworks and Topspin. You can even turn your FID into an audio file and "listen" to the sound of a sample. The possibilities here are endless, but starting with NUTS might not be a bad way to go unless you already have some other software you know. | ||
