Ease of use and acquisition speed of MaxQuant.Live. A, Graphical user interface containing functionalities to create and manage scan protocols. B, Benchmarking the acquisition speeds of MaxQuant.Live versus the vendor's software (Xcalibur). In both top15 implementations, the instrument was acquiring MS2 spectra at nearly the maximum rate throughout the run (left panel). The number of MS and MS2 scans as well as the peptide spectrum matches (PSM) are comparable (right panel).
