# Setting Fuse Preferences

Fuse has many options to control various details of the emulator and the machine being emulated. You use preferences to specify things such as the model of Sinclair Spectrum that you want to emulate, or the peripherals you would like to have connected to the virtual machine. Also note that any changes that enable and disable peripherals may result in a hard reset of the emulated machine.

To view or change preferences choose Fuse > Preferences.
