We have built a pulsar machine (PuMa) for operation at the Westerbork Synthesis Radio Telescope. The combination of PuMa and WSRT is capable of many types of pulsar research. We show the coherent dedispersion capabilities and the flexible frequency resolution. We discuss pulsar searching and simultaneous multifrequency observations.
