## Configuration

By placing a file named `nvda_settings.json` in `User Home Directory / Documents / Voicemeeter` (the same place as your Voicemeeter xml profiles) you can change most of the default keybinds.

The `voicemeeter` key can take one of three values:

- `basic`
- `banana`
- `potato`

example:

```json
{
  "voicemeeter": "banana",
  "keybinds": {
    "NVDA+alt+k": "strip_mode",
    "NVDA+alt+l": "bus_mode",
    "NVDA+alt+g": "gain_mode",
    "NVDA+alt+c": "comp_mode",
    "NVDA+alt+t": "gate_mode",
    "NVDA+alt+d": "denoiser_mode",
    "NVDA+alt+a": "audibility_mode",
    "NVDA+shift+q": "announce_controller",
    "NVDA+shift+z": "announce_voicemeeter_version",
    "NVDA+shift+s": "toggle_solo",
    "NVDA+shift+m": "toggle_mute",
    "NVDA+shift+c": "toggle_mc",
    "NVDA+shift+k": "karaoke",
    "NVDA+shift+upArrow": "slider_increase_by_point_one",
    "NVDA+shift+downArrow": "slider_decrease_by_point_one",
    "NVDA+shift+alt+upArrow": "slider_increase_by_one",
    "NVDA+shift+alt+downArrow": "slider_decrease_by_one",
    "NVDA+shift+control+upArrow": "slider_increase_by_three",
    "NVDA+shift+control+downArrow": "slider_decrease_by_three"
  }
}
```

Would make the following changes:

- load the plugin in `banana` mode (default is potato).
- change the `strip_mode` and `bus_mode` binds to k and l respectively.
- change the `announce_voicemeeter_version` bind to z.

All other binds would then be defaults.
