SOAS
SOAS is the in-house electrochemistry sofware we use to analyse voltammetric data. We’re happy to provide it free and free of charge. It should install easily on Unix-like platforms: Linux and Mac OS X.
Soas is listed in ESTIR
Manual
The program is briefly described in the following paper: V. Fourmond et al. Bioelectrochemistry, 76, 141-147 (2009) [here] [pdf]. For another quick tour, you may read this tutorial.
The complete SOAS manual is online and can also be downloaded as a pdf file. Here is the GILDAS/Greg manual. Check on recent modifications of SOAS.

Download / Install
Option 1. Debian installer for LINUX (New in March 2011).
Debian users can add the following stanza to their /etc/apt/sources.list
deb http://bip.cnrs-mrs.fr/bip06/soas/distrib/debian/ sid main
And then run as root:
# apt-get update # apt-get install soas
For Ubuntu versions earlier than natty, the following additional steps should be performed before:
# wget http://ftp.fr.debian.org/debian/pool/main/s/scalc/libscalc0_0.2.4-1_amd64.deb # dpkg -i libscalc0_0.2.4-1_amd64.deb
(substitute amd64 for i386 if you’re using
a 32 bits environment).
Option 2. Mac OS X users (10.4 and above) can install the binaries.
Kevin Hoke put together these self-extracting binary distributions of SOAS:
- soas-3.6.3.zip (2008/03/04).
- soas-3.6.4.zip (2008/05/23). Run this installer first, then update with soas37.zip, this is a binary that might work on any mac that is running 10.5 (Leopard) or 10.6. It will not run on earlier versions of the MacOS.
- Soas3.7.2-intelMac.zip (2010/06/16) Complete installer for Macs with an Intel Core 2 Duo processor (not Core Solo or Core Duo), running Mac OS 10.5 or 10.6
- Soas3.7.2-PowerPCmac.zip (2010/06/17) Complete installer for any Mac running Mac OS 10.4 through 10.6.
Option 3 (the hard way): Build your own
SOAS uses the graphic program and libraries of GILDAS , which should be installed first (you do not need the latest version; note that we haven’t tested compatibility with GILDAS distributions younger than that released in august 2008). There are other prerequisites: check the README and INSTALL files for installation notes, and the FAQ. Here are MAc OS X compilation notes by Kevin Hoke.
The tarballs below include the source code and makefiles:
- soas-3.6.3.tar.gz (2008/02/20).
- soas-3.6.4.tar.gz (2008/05/06). This version fixes minor bugs.
