# This also may hide the boot logo on smaller graphical displays.

#
# If the default synthesizer is unavailable (e.g. missing ROMs or SoundFonts),

# mt32:      Use mt32emu (Munt) for Roland MT-32 emulation
# soundfont: Use FluidSynth for SoundFont synthesis

#
# Disable this to speed up boot time if you are not using any USB devices.
#
# Values: on*, off
usb = off

# Set the I2C baud rate/clock speed for all peripherals (Hz).
#
# Most peripherals will work fine at the default speed (400KHz "fast mode"),
# but larger LCD/OLED displays (e.g. 4-line I2C HD44780 and 64 pixel high
# SSD1306) won't be able to refresh at 60FPS at the default setting.
#
# Try increasing this value to 1000000 (1MHz) for a smoother LCD refresh rate.
# If your display doesn't work, try backing off the speed 100KHz at a time
# until it does.
#
# Values: 100000-1000000 (400000*)
i2c_baud_rate = 400000

# Set the timeout for power saving mode (seconds).
#
# After the specified number of seconds of silence, the CPU clock speed will be
# reduced, the audio device will be stopped, and and the LCD's backlight will
# be turned off to save energy (certain I2C displays only).
#
# Any MIDI activity will instantly bring the system out of power saving mode.
#
# If set to 0, power saving mode is disabled.

[midi]

# Set the baud rate used for GPIO MIDI.
#
# For connecting to standard MIDI devices (i.e. via DIN cable), this should be
# left at the default rate of 31250.
#
# For connecting to PCs, set this to match the baud rate of the other host.
# SoftMPU's serial MIDI mode, for example, uses a baud rate of 38400.

# Enable or disable software "MIDI thru" on the GPIO Tx pin.

# verbatim on the Tx pin. This may be useful for debugging or for passing MIDI
# data through to another synth.
#
# Values: on, off*
gpio_thru = off

# Set the baud rate used for USB serial MIDI.
#
# The same considerations from the gpio_baud_rate setting above apply here.
# The default value is a PC baud rate and matches SoftMPU's serial MIDI mode.
#
# The range of valid baud rates may vary depending on the chipset of your USB
# serial device, so the range of values suggested below may actually be greater.

# hdmi: Use the HDMI port
# i2s: Use an I2S DAC
output_device = i2s

# Sample rate of audio output (Hz).
#
# mt32emu uses an internal sample rate of 32000Hz (just like the real hardware)
# which is then resampled to this value.
#
# FluidSynth renders at this sample rate directly.
#
# Values: 32000-192000 (48000*)
sample_rate = 48000

# Set audio rendering chunk size (samples).
#
# A single stereo frame of audio has two samples, and so this value is double
# the number of frames per chunk.
# The smaller the chunk size, the lower the latency, but too low a value will
# cause underruns (distortion artifacts).
#
# Latency is a function of chunk size and sample rate, for example:
# 256 samples / 2 channels / 48000Hz * 1000ms = 2.67ms of latency.
# See documentation for recommended values for various Raspberry Pi models.
#
# The minimum value varies depending on audio output device.
# For PWM, the minimum is 2, for I2S the minimum is 32.
# For HDMI, the minimum is 384, and will be rounded to the nearest multiple of
# 384.
#
# Values: 2-2048 (256*)

# Select an initialization sequence for the DAC.
#
# Some DACs require some initialization commands to be sent via I2C before they

# simple_buttons: Simple 4-button scheme
# simple_encoder: Simple 2-button + rotary encoder scheme

# Set the rotary encoder type (if used by control scheme).
#
# Different rotary encoders may complete different fractions of a Gray-code
# cycle per detent ("click").
#
# If four clicks are needed for a single movement, try "quarter".
# If two clicks are needed for a single movement, try "half".
#
# Values: quarter, half, full*
encoder_type = full

# Reverse the rotary encoder direction (if used by control scheme).
#
# Some rotary encoders may have their CLK/DAT signals swapped, resulting in
# a reversed rotation direction.
#
# Use this option to correct the direction.
#
# Values: on, off*
encoder_reversed = off

# Enable or disable the I2C MiSTer control interface.
#
# If using mt32-pi with a MiSTer FPGA system and custom hardware to interface

# the MiSTer's on-screen display.
#
# Values: on, off*

# Set the timeout for switching SoundFonts (seconds).
#
# When switching SoundFonts using the physical button, there is a short delay

# Select quality level for the resampler.

# If set to none, audio output will sound wrong unless you set the sample rate
# option to 32000Hz, which is the MT-32's native sample rate.

# Values: none, fastest, fast, good*, best

# Select initial MIDI channel assignment.
#
# The MT-32 uses an unusual MIDI channel assignment by default. On a real MT-32
# this is set using a button combination. Use this option to change the initial
# channel assignment on startup.
#
# Values: standard*, alternate
#
# standard:  Parts 1-8 = MIDI channels 2-9, Rhythm part = MIDI channel 10
# alternate: Parts 1-8 = MIDI channels 1-8, Rhythm part = MIDI channel 10

# Select initial ROM set to use.
#
# If multiple ROM sets are available, this option determines which set to use
# on startup. If the ROM set specified here is unavailable, the first available
# set is used instead.
#
# Values: old*, new, cm32l
rom_set = old

# Set whether the stereo channels should be swapped or not.
#
# The MT-32 interprets values for MIDI CC#10 (panpot) differently to later
# synthesizers, which means that 0 = right and 127 = left; the opposite of what
# is stated in the most recent versions of the MIDI specification.
#
# Enable this option to swap the channels and make MT-32 mode's panning
# behavior match the behavior of SoundFont mode. Note that this can also be
# switched at runtime with a custom SysEx command.
#
# Values: on, off*
reversed_stereo = off

# SoundFont synthesizer options
# -----------------------------------------------------------------------------
[fluidsynth]

# Set the initial SoundFont to use.
#
# If multiple SoundFonts are available, this option determines which SoundFont
# to use on startup.
#
# On startup, the "soundfonts" directory is scanned for valid SoundFonts, which
# are added to a list and sorted into alphabetical order.
#
# This setting is a zero-indexed offset into that list (i.e. 0 is the first,
# 1, is the second, and so on).
#
# If the index specified is unavailable, the first available SoundFont will be
# used.
#
# Values: 0-255 (0*)
soundfont = 0

# Set the master volume gain.
#
# The default is a low value to avoid clipping when many notes are playing at
# once.
#
# The value should be a decimal value between 0.0 and 10.0. Values outside this
# range will be clamped.
#
# Values: 0.0-10.0 (0.2*)
gain = 0.2

# Set the maximum number of voices that can be played simultaneously.
#
# Depending on the complexity of your SoundFont, you may need to reduce this
# value to prevent audio buffer underruns (distortion) when playing music
# featuring lots of notes being played at once.
#
# On the other hand, you may want to try raising this value if your Pi is
# being run overclocked or has a more powerful CPU (e.g. Pi 4/CM4).
#
# N.B. larger file size of the SoundFont does not imply higher CPU usage.
# SoundFonts that use more real-time effects (modulators) are more likely to
# require a reduction in polyphony.
#
# Values: 1-65535 (200*)
polyphony = 200

# The following settings set the default parameters for FluidSynth's reverb and
# chorus effects.
#
# Each setting can be overridden on a per-SoundFont basis by adding extra
# sections, e.g. [fluidsynth.soundfont.x], where x is the zero-based index of
# the SoundFont. See the next section for an example.
#
# Full descriptions and valid value ranges for each setting can be found in the
