# OpenAL config file. Options that are not under a block or are under the
# [general] block are for general, non-backend-specific options. Blocks may
# appear multiple times, and duplicated options will take the last value
# specified.
# The system-wide settings can be put in /etc/openal/alsoft.conf and user-
# specific override settings in ~/.alsoftrc.
# For Windows, these settings should go into %AppData%\alsoft.ini
# The environment variable ALSOFT_CONF can be used to specify another config
# override

# Option and block names are case-insenstive. The supplied values are only
# hints and may not be honored (though generally it'll try to get as close as
# possible). Note: options that are left unset may default to app- or system-
# specified values. These are the current available settings:

## format:
#  Sets the output format. Can be one of:
#  AL_FORMAT_MONO8    (8-bit mono)
#  AL_FORMAT_STEREO8  (8-bit stereo)
#  AL_FORMAT_QUAD8    (8-bit 4-channel)
#  AL_FORMAT_51CHN8   (8-bit 5.1 output)
#  AL_FORMAT_61CHN8   (8-bit 6.1 output)
#  AL_FORMAT_71CHN8   (8-bit 7.1 output)
#  AL_FORMAT_MONO16   (16-bit mono)
#  AL_FORMAT_STEREO16 (16-bit stereo)
#  AL_FORMAT_QUAD16   (16-bit 4-channel)
#  AL_FORMAT_51CHN16  (16-bit 5.1 output)
#  AL_FORMAT_61CHN16  (16-bit 6.1 output)
#  AL_FORMAT_71CHN16  (16-bit 7.1 output)
#  AL_FORMAT_MONO32   (32-bit float mono)
#  AL_FORMAT_STEREO32 (32-bit float stereo)
#  AL_FORMAT_QUAD32   (32-bit float 4-channel)
#  AL_FORMAT_51CHN32  (32-bit float 5.1 output)
#  AL_FORMAT_61CHN32  (32-bit float 6.1 output)
#  AL_FORMAT_71CHN32  (32-bit float 7.1 output)
#format = AL_FORMAT_STEREO16

## cf_level:
#  Sets the crossfeed level for stereo output. Valid values are:
#  0 - No crossfeed
#  1 - Low crossfeed
#  2 - Middle crossfeed
#  3 - High crossfeed (virtual speakers are closer to itself)
#  4 - Low easy crossfeed
#  5 - Middle easy crossfeed
#  6 - High easy crossfeed
#  Users of headphones may want to try various settings. Has no effect on non-
#  stereo modes.
#cf_level = 0

## frequency:
#  Sets the output frequency.
#frequency = 44100

## refresh:
#  Sets the buffer size, in frames. Note that the actual granularity may or may
#  not be less than this.
#refresh = 4096

## sources:
#  Sets the maximum number of allocatable sources. Lower values may help for
#  systems with apps that try to play more sounds than the CPU can handle.
#sources = 256

## stereodup:
#  Sets whether to duplicate stereo sounds on the rear and side speakers for 4+
#  channel output. This can make stereo sources substantially louder than mono
#  or even 4+ channel sources, but provides a "fuller" playback quality. True,
#  yes, on, and non-0 values will duplicate stereo sources. 0 and anything else
#  will cause stereo sounds to only play out the front speakers.
#stereodup = false

## drivers:
#  Sets the backend driver list order, comma-seperated. Unknown backends and
#  duplicated names are ignored, and unlisted backends won't be considered for
#  use. An empty list means the default.
#drivers = alsa,oss,solaris,dsound,winmm,port,pulse,wave

## excludefx:
#  Sets which effects to exclude, preventing apps from using them. This can
#  help for apps that try to use effects which are too CPU intensive for the
#  system to handle. Available effects are: eaxreverb,reverb,echo
#excludefx =

## slots:
#  Sets the maximum number of Auxiliary Effect Slots an app can create. A slot
#  can use a non-negligible amount of CPU time if an effect is set on it even
#  if no sources are feeding it, so this may help when apps use more than the
#  system can handle.
#slots = 4

## sends:
#  Sets the maximum number of auxiliary sends per source. The total number of
#  sends possible is defined at compile time and thus can not be increased
#  beyond the default (2).
#sends = 2

## layout_STEREO:
#  Sets the speaker layout when using stereo output. Values are specified in
#  degrees, where 0 is straight in front, negative goes left, and positive goes
#  right. The values must define a circular pattern, starting with the back-
#  left at the most negative, around the front to back-center. Unspecified
#  speakers will remain at their default position. Available speakers are
#  front-left(fl) and front-right(fr).
#layout_STEREO = fl=-90, fr=90

## laytout_QUAD:
#  Sets the speaker layout when using quadriphonic output. Available speakers
#  are back-left(bl), front-left(fl), front-right(fr), and back-right(br).
#layout_QUAD = bl=-135, fl=-45, fr=45, br=135

## layout_51CHN:
#  Sets the speaker layout when using 5.1 output. Available speakers are back-
#  left(bl), front-left(fl), front-center(fc), front-right(fr), and back-
#  right(br).
#layout_51CHN = bl=-110, fl=-30, fc=0, fr=30, br=110

## layout_61CHN:
#  Sets the speaker layout when using 6.1 output. Available speakers are side-
#  left(sl), front-left(fl), front-center(fc), front-right(fr), side-right(sr),
#  and back-center(bc).
#layout_61CHN = sl=-90, fl=-30, fc=0, fr=30, sr=90, bc=180

## layout_71CHN:
#  Sets the speaker layout when using 7.1 output. Available speakers are back-
#  left(bl), side-left(sl), front-left(fl), front-center(fc), front-right(fr),
#  side-right(sr), and back-right(br).
#layout_71CHN = bl=-150, sl=-90, fl=-30, fc=0, fr=30, sr=90, br=150
