The cut-off is based on the expected frequency of your data. For most
event-related designs, 128 should be fine as you don't have any low
frequencies below (1/128s) in your design. For block designs, where the
data tends to more period, you want to increase the number (decrease the
frequency) to make it at least twice as long as your block to block of the
same condition interval.
