     ----------
-    file_path : str
+    file_path : str | Path
         The file path to load the recordings from.
     stream_id : str, default: None
         If there are several streams, specify the stream id you want to load.
     stream_name : str, default: None
         If there are several streams, specify the stream name you want to load.
     all_annotations : bool, default: False
         Load exhaustively all annotations from neo.
+    use_names_as_ids : bool, default: True
+        Determines the format of the channel IDs used by the extractor. If set to True, the channel IDs will be the
+    names from NeoRawIO. If set to False, the channel IDs will be the ids provided by NeoRawIO.

+        Example for wideband signals:
+            names: ["WB01", "WB02", "WB03", "WB04"]
