Congratulations on installing Julius!
**Model file placement:**
You'll need to create a directory for your Julius models. Typically, it's `models` or `data` within the Julius root directory.
For example:
```
/julius_root/models/
```
 Place your model files (`.mod`, `.mdl`, etc.) inside this directory.
**Configuration file:**
The main configuration file is usually `julius.conf` in the root directory. You can modify it to specify the location of your models and other settings.
Here's a basic example:
```bash
[DEFAULT] mode = 1 sample_rate = 8000 [model] path = models/
```
In this example, we're telling Julius to look for models in the `models/` directory. You can adjust the `path` setting as needed.
**Additional settings:**
Some other relevant options:
* `lang_model`: Specify the language model file (e.g., `lang.mdl`)
* `dict`: Specify a dictionary file (e.g., `dict.dic`)
* `hmm`: Specify an HMM file (e.g., `hmm/hmmdefs.mod`)
**Example configuration:**
```bash
[DEFAULT] mode = 1 sample_rate = 8000 [model] path = models/ [lang_model] model_file = lang.mdl [dict] dict_file = dict.dic [hmm] hmm_defs = hmm/hmmdefs.mod
```
This is a basic example. You can add or modify settings as needed for your specific use case.
**Tips:**
* Make sure to update the `path` setting if you move your models directory.
* If you have multiple language models, create separate sections (e.g., `[lang_model_english]`, `[lang_model_spanish]`) and adjust the `model_file` settings accordingly.
